Night has lent a star,—
And only happy children
Know what bubbles are.

Little boy from ’cross-the-street,

Little Let-Me-Too,
Thinks they’re made of undreamed dreams,
Glassed in morning dew;
Just perhaps they’re made of that;
We are glad they stay
For even little breathless whiles,

Before they melt away.
