EUTOPIA
There is a garden where lilies
And roses are side by side;
And all day between them in silence
The silken butterflies glide.
And roses are side by side;
And all day between them in silence
The silken butterflies glide.
I may not enter the garden,
Though I know the road thereto;
And morn by morn to the gateway
I see the children go.
Though I know the road thereto;
And morn by morn to the gateway
I see the children go.
They bring back light on their faces;
But they cannot bring back to me
What the lilies say to the roses,
Or the songs of the butterflies be.
But they cannot bring back to me
What the lilies say to the roses,
Or the songs of the butterflies be.
