When | Was a Boy.

Up in the attic where slept
When was boy-a little boy!
In through the lattice the moonlight crept
Bringing tide of dreams that swept
Over the low, red trundle bed,
Bathing the tangled curly head,
While the moonbeams played at hide and seek
With dimples on each sun Drowned cheek
When was a boy-a little boy!
And. oh, the dreams, the dreams dreamed
When was boy-a little boy!
For the grace that through the lattice streamed
Over my folded eyelids seemed
To have gift of prophecy,
And to bring me glimpses of times to be
Where manhood's clarion seemed to call,
All, that was the sweetest dream of all
When was boy-a little boy
I'd like to sleep where used to sleep
When was boy-a little boy!
For in at the lattice the moon would peep,
Bringing her tide of dreams to sweep
The crosses and griefs of the years away
From the heart that is weary and faint today,
And those dreams should give me back again
The peace have never known since then
When was boy-a little boy.
