TO THREE LITTLE KATHARINES

Oh, Katharines three,
Come sail with me
Where the ship of my Fancy flies!
We’ll wander free
Over land and sea,
Then sail away to the skies.
If I were a star,
So far—so far—
From this Earth where the children dwell,
My twinkliest beam
For that ship should gleam;
And my truest secret I’d tell
To the eyes that look
Through fancy.—No book
Nor telescope serves so well.
