A Lovely Little Daydream

A Garden Dreamy

I often dream a sweet little daydream,
      of a garden dreamy . . . 
A lush woodland place with a flowing stream,
up above are drifting clouds like ice cream;
a realm of floating bees and butterflies,
   a paradise of birds songs and plumage;
where green tree leaf frogs sing me lullabies,
   taking me back to my childhood age;
      and I am a little weepy . . . 
Then a little girl stands in a sunbeam!

A sweet girl who left me one winter day,
      and her name is Suzanne . . . 
She takes me by the hand and giggles gay, 
among painted daisies and snowdrops we play;
I was so shy and she was always wild,
   we weave in and out of the tall yarrow;
a bouquet of posies, from a lovely child,
   then, Suzanne is fading to a shadow;
      I dream whenever I can . . .
I daydream this dream that will always stay!
