As Robert Louis Stevenson Might Have Sung
At morning first I raise my head,
Then sit up in my little bed,
Look out my window toward the sky
Where great white clouds go trundling by.
Then sit up in my little bed,
Look out my window toward the sky
Where great white clouds go trundling by.
I see the fields all bare and brown,
The muddy roads which lead to town,
The bobbing white-caps on the sea,
The tattooed sailors by the quay;
The muddy roads which lead to town,
The bobbing white-caps on the sea,
The tattooed sailors by the quay;
I hear a Robin Red-breast sing,
I smell the pleasant smells of Spring;
And then I dress and go to play
Out in the sunshine all the day.
I smell the pleasant smells of Spring;
And then I dress and go to play
Out in the sunshine all the day.
