You are the sun in the child of delight—light…

 

…the one I see when I close my eyes tight
I am simplified in tune
rising up to reach the moon
as I leap from star to star
I’ll get there soon

Perhaps I’m done with the wild of the night
oh pretty one! are you always so bright?
you are every hopeful dream
every one I’ve ever gleaned
we’ll awaken to be far from where we’ve been
