The Little Land
When at home alone I sit
And am very tired of it,
I have just to shut my eyes
To go sailing far away
To the pleasant Land Of Play; (1)
Where the little people are;
Where the clover-tops are trees,
And the rain-pools are the seas.
And the leaves, like little ships,
Sail about on tiny trips. (2)
Should a leaflet come to hand
Drifting near to where I stand,
Straight I'll board that tiny boat
Round the rain-pool sea to float. (3)
When my eyes I once again
Open, and see all things plain:
High bare walls, great bare floor;
Great big people perched on chairs,
Each a hill that I could climb,
And talking nonsense all the time- (4)
O dear me, .
That I could be
A sailor on the rain-pool sea,
A climber in the clover tree, And just come back, a sleepy-head,
Late at night to go to bed. (5)
