ANSWER

By Margaret Elizabeth Sangster

I am myself — you cannot take my dreams

And pull the filmy stuff of them apart!

I am myself — and life IS what it seems.

I am myself, and love is in my heart!

You cannot make me think by fast set rule,

You cannot laugh beliefs like mine away,

Experience MAY be a bitter school,

And yet.... The golden sun shines every day,

And stars at night lend magic to the sky,

And all the world is vividly a-glow,

You cannot make me pause to question why

For we who dare to dream have learned to know!
