Misty Dreams Upon the Deep
I love the child who steers this riverboat,
Though he seems crazy, for the deep.
The river seems dreamlike, in the moonlight--
Someone keeps creeping, in my sleep.
And dreams, of rolling river--
Of water swell, and waves that creep
Upon the beach while in the moonlight glow,
Surprise the sands, and the corals sweep.
Sail on, you rolling river,
Of choice and chance, and misty dream--
My reverie upon the deep,
That haunts my soul, but will not keep!
