Upon the liles in the lake

Violets; she, a snowflake

Roses; she of lonely make

Raindrops fall into the lake



And comes a swan with silver eyes

She gazes past her empty vice

A song she sings, poetic lies

A redness in her silver eyes



White as the dawn on truth at night

A gown with tears of trees in sight

Falls hidden in the hearth; no light

The swan treads home into the night
