--from Now We Are Six
I love this poem. There are poems of AA Milne's that I love more, but this one is so sweet and buttercups are just coming out now and... I happen to love how "fist of her's" rhymes so nice with "Christopher's." It probably isn't a terribly sophisticated rhyme, but for some reason, it delights me.
I love this poem, too. The children are so intent; they are truly lost in their mutual dream. I have been collecting children's books for many years. They seem to distill what is important and beautiful in life.
