MY BED IS A BOAT By Robert Louis Stevenson My bed is like a little boat; Nurse helps me in when I embark;She girds me in my sailors coat And starts me in the dark. At night, I go on board and say Good-night to all my friends on shore; I shut my eyes and sail see and hear no more. And sometimes things to bed I take,As prudent sailors have to do; Perhaps a slice of wedding cake,Perhaps, a toy or two. All night across the dark we steer; But when the day returns at last^Safe in my room, beside the pier, I find mv vessel fast. Mv Bed is a Boat 127. c> NURSE HELPS ME WHEN I EMBARK ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON
