Poem of the Week

Wynken, Blynken and Nod (Selections)

The old moon laughed and sang a song,
As they rocked in the wooden shoe;
And the wind that sped them all night long
Ruffled the waves of dew;
The little stars were the herring-fish
That lived in the beautiful sea.
“Now cast your nets wherever you wish,--
Never afraid are we!”
So cried the stars to the fisherman three,
Wynken
Blynken
And Nod.

Poem of the Week

Wynken, Blynken and Nod (Selections)

Wynken, Blynken and Nod one night
Sailed off in a wooden shoe. --
Sailed on a river of crystal light
Into a sea of dew. 
“Where are you going, and what do you wish?”
The old moon asked the three.
“We have come to fish for the herring-fish
That live in this beautiful sea;
Nets of silver and gold have we,”
Said Wynken
Blynken
And Nod.

Poem of the Week

The Muddy Puddle

I am sitting
In the middle
Of a rather Muddy,
Puddle,
With my bottom
Full of bubbles
And my boots
Full of mud,

While my jacket
and my sweater
Go on slowly
Getting wetter
As I very
Slowly settle
To the bottom
Of the mud.

And I find that
What a person
With a puddle
Round his middle
Thinks mostly
In the muddle
Is the Muddi-
Ness of Mud
