Seek a hidden, shady brook.
While the sunbeams flecked the stream
Would we dream and read and dream.
On the banks blue hairbells hung,
And sweet honeysuckles swung
Loaded down by buzzing bees.
Robins sang among the trees,
And the shadows lurked below,
Waiting for the day to go.
In my Indian canoe
There was room enough for two;
I was one; the other - who?
Tell me, don't you wish you knew?
