We laugh at the lad when he scribbles
and scrawls
We smile at his pictures of houses and
walls,
But he is so serious all the while.
Unheeding the mock OF our questioning
Ask what he is doing; the answer it
brings
Is rich with belief: "An these wunnerful
thingsr'
The 'wunnerful things" that he does
cry day
The make-believe marvels he finds in his
play,
He talks TO the trees and he talks to tho
And listens all gravely while they make
reply.
We nod at the tangIed-up music he sings
But he says his songs are all ''wunnerful
things"
So solemnly calm. he can see in the shade
The fairies a-dance to the songs he has
made;
And he can pretend that a box is
throne.
While he is a monarch who rules there
alone.
We laugh as we ask what his fancy gives
wings.
But he in his wisdom says: "wunnerful
things"
We laugh at the lad-but our laughter
soon dies
On seeing the rapturous light in his eyes.
For he has that faith in the things he
pretends
Which makes them all truel So our wise
laughter ends
With longing that we had the gladness
that springs
From a knowledge that rests on the
"wunnerful things"
o. wonderful things in the heart OF a
child
Whose dreaming not yet by unfaith are
| beguiled
| The things that we older ones reckon as
| naught
Are truer and fairer than those we have
| sought
| We envy the lad who in joyousness clings
To the marvellous charm OF his "wunner-
full things"
