Water Sprite

              Water sprite, I hear you calling

                        Deep within the well divine,

               Drink swiftly for night is falling 

                        Coaxing stars that _{^{ever shine}}

               _{^{To eclipse night shadows,}}

                         Softer light that pales the moon,

                Pale and still, the voices calling,

                         Refract waves of celestial song.                                                                                                   

                                                       S. K. Lindeman
