1 Oh! that we two were Maying <br />2 Down the stream of the soft spring breeze; <br />3 Like children with violets playing <br />4 In the shade of the whispering trees. <br /> <br />5 Oh! that we two sat dreaming <br />6 On the sward of some sheep-trimmed down, <br />7 Watching the white mist steaming <br />8 Over river and mead and town. <br /> <br />9 Oh! that we two lay sleeping <br />10 In our nest in the churchyard sod, <br />11 With our limbs at rest on the quiet earth's breast, <br />12 And our souls at home with God!<br /><br />Charles Kingsley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/oh-that-we-two-were-maying/
