Up into the cherry tree
Who should climb but little me?
I held the trunk with both my hands
And looked abroad on foreign lands.
I saw the next door garden lie
Adorned with flowers before my eye,
And many pleasant places more
That I had never seen before.
Foreign Lands By Robert Louis Stevenson

To where the roads on either hand
Lead onward into fairyland,
Where all the children dine at five,
And all the playthings come alive.
I saw the dimpling river pass
And be the sky's blue looking glass;
The dusty roads go up and down
with people tramping into town.
If I could find a higher tree
farther and farther I should see,
to where the grown-up river slips
into the sea among the ships,
