game with nina
9 months ago
I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,
And what can be the use of him is more than I can see.
He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;
And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed.
The funniest thing about him is the way he likes to grow—
Not at all like proper children, which is always very slow;
For he sometimes shoots up taller like an india-rubber ball,
And he sometimes gets so little that there’s none of him at all.
Read the whole poem here, and check out more poems by Stevenson in his book A Child’s Garden of Verses. Some of these funny poems are a little long; for something shorter, check out these short jokes anyone can remember.
