Three Ships.

Three ships there be asailing
Betwixt the sea and sky;
And one is Now, and one is Then,
And one is BY and By.
The first little ship is all for you
Its masts are gold, its sails are blue,
And this is the cargo it brings
Joyful days with sunlight glowing
Nights where dreams like stars are grow
ing.
Take them, sweet, or they'll be going,
For they every one have wings.
The second one is all for me
A-sailing on a misty sea
And out across the twilight gray
What it brought of gift and blessing
Would not stay for my caressing,
Was too dear for my possessing,
So it sails and sails away.
The last ship. riding fair and high
Upon the sea, is By and By.
O, Wind, be kind and gently blow!
Not too swiftly hasten hither
When she turuS, sweet, you'll go with her
Sailing, floating, hither, thither-
