When All the Dreams Are Over


When all the dreams are over,
  1
  And all the long day done,
And we no longer heed the stern
  Reveillé of the sun;

I wonder, love, if you will be
  5
  A bird that skims and skims
The grasses, or a little fish
  That swims and swims and swims.

Or will you be a blue-eyed flower,
  9
  And grow just over me,
And we will talk together
  Of all that used to be.
