I watched it for a day.
It did not change color For its colors stay. It was as red, as yellow, as white, as blue As gold and stones with the light through! I watched it long and long Till a flying sunfish Swam through its branches. He had opal wings And a sapphire tail. No wonder robbers like to stay Where fish so shining come to play! THREE LOVES Angel-love, Fairy-love, Wave-love, Which will you choose? Angel-love . . . golden-yellow and far white . . . Fairy-love . . . golden yellow and green . . . Wave-love . . . scarlet and azure blue . . . Which will you choose? I will keep them in a box Locked with a twisted key. I will give them to people who need love, |
