There's one, not necessarily my favorite, but perhaps a favorite, that makes me think of childhood and my little boys:

Before the ice is in the pools--
Before the skaters go,
Or any cheek at nightfall
Is tarnished by the snow--

Before the fields have finished,
Before the Christmas tree,
Wonder upon wonder
Will arrive to me!

What we touch the hems of
On a summer's day --
What is only walking
Just a bridge away--

That which sings so -- speaks so --
When there's no one here--
Will the frock I wept in
Answer me to wear?]]>
