~Epilogue~

 Angel Dominguez Illustrated by Angel Dominguez


A boat, beneath a sunny sky
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July

Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear
Pleased a simple tale to hear

Long has paled that sunny sky:
Echoes fade and memories die:
Autumn frosts have slain July.

Still she haunts me, phantomwise
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.

Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.

In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:

Ever drifting down the stream
Lingering in the golden gleam
Life what is it but a dream?

This poem has been extracted from the story
"Through the Looking Glass" by Lewis Carroll.

  1. Ever drifting down the stream
    Lingering in the golden gleam
    Life what is it but a dream?

    Always loved those lines.
