DREAM-SHIPS

Previous
I set my dream-ships floating
Upon the tides of sleep.
Beneath whose moving waters
Unfathomed currents creep;
And one was made of roses
With flowering mast and spars,
And one was made of music,
And one was made of stars:
One was all joy and sorrow
Made from my own heart-strings,
And one was like a cradle
With sails like angels' wings.
O little ships that wander
All lonely on the deep,
And only come to haven
Upon the tides of sleep.
