The Castle-Builder Annotated

A gentle boy, with soft and silken locks
&nbsp A dreamy boy, with brown and tender eyes,
A castle-builder, with his wooden blocks,
&nbsp And towers that touch imaginary skies.

A fearless rider on his father's knee,
&nbsp An eager listener unto stories told
At the Round Table of the nursery,
&nbsp Of heroes and adventures manifold.

There will be other towers for thee to build;
&nbsp There will be other steeds for thee to ride;
There will be other legends, and all filled
&nbsp With greater marvels and more glorified.

Build on, and make thy castles high and fair,
&nbsp Rising and reaching upward to the skies;
Listen to voices in the upper air,
&nbsp Nor lose thy simple faith in mysteries.
