Piping Pan
Who knows all about Art
By Louis Saint Gaudens

If you would find the magical strand
Of the sculpters' garden in Fairyland,
If you would tread the beautiful way
Where children of dreams delight to play
To elfin pipes would harken and hear
Till the glad days dance down the singing year,
Would enter the garden that has no key,
No gate to unlock and to pay, no fee,
Would follow the path to the gladsome Art -
Then must you come with childlike heart.
For a childlike heart is the one demand
Of heaven, of Art and of Fairyland.
