Favourite Children's Poems of W. Neil Fraser
Young Night Thought
By Robert Louis Stevenson


All night long, and every night,
When my mamma puts out the light,
I see the people marching by,
As plain as day, before my eye.

Armies and emperors and kings,
All carrying different kinds of things,
And marching in so grand a way,
You never saw the like by day.

So fine a show was never seen
At the great circus on the green;
For every kind of beast and man
Is marching in that caravan.

At first they move a little slow,
But faster and faster on they go,
And still beside them close I keep
Until we reach the town of sleep.
