DREAM

The trees were then in flowers

Sweet smell spread around the air

Singing birds were flying here and there

Spring had come with all its fair.

In the garden on the bed of grass

John lied under a tree

He read a sweet love story

Of glee, and he looked merry

When john slept could not remember

A beautiful sight with wonder

He saw a fair girl of fairyland

With a red rose in her hand.

 She was standing and moving in the sky

And looking john with wistful eye.

John gazed and gazed but could not

Say any word, as she was long away

John felt a thrill in heart

The fairy weared in a long white skirt.

Little the time John passed in sleep

But the fairy impressed him deep

When awoke john thought of dreamy scene

He desired to dream the fairy once again.

One morning John was sitting in his room

A girl through the garden came to him

With a strange he saw the girl came in dream

John looked and looked could not utter a word

What do you see, I am Roseate she said.

John could know his girl friend of  childhood

She was a sweet girl of ten years old

Now after twelve years Roseate has become

A fairy and a girl of John’s dream.
