Robert Louis Stevenson 185094The Land of Counterpane
StvnsnR.htmlW
I had two pillows at my head,
And all my toys beside me lay
To keep me happy all the day.
I watched my leaden soldiers go,
With different uniforms and drills,
Among the bed-clothes, through the hills;
All up and down among the sheets;
Or brought my trees and houses out,
And planted cities all about.
That sits upon the pillow-hill,
And sees before him, dale and plain,
The pleasant land of counterpane.
