名人诗歌|To an Isle in the Water

Shy one of my heart，

She moves in the firelight

Pensively^{1 apart.}

She carries in the dishes，

And lays them in a row.

To an isle^{2 in the water}

With her would I go.

She carries in the candles，

And lights the curtained room，

Shy in the doorway³

And shy in the gloom；

And shy as a rabbit，

Helpful and shy.

To an isle in the water

With her would I fly.
