LITTLE WILLIE'S TRICKS
By Eugene Field
When Willie was little boy
Not more than five or six.
Eight constantly did he annoy
His mother with his tricks.
Yet not a picayune cared
Far what he did or said.
Unless, as happened frequently,
The rascal wet the bed.
Closely he cuddled up to me
And put his hand in mine,
Till all at once seemed to be
Afloat in seas Of brine
Sabean doors clogged the air
And filled my soul with dread,
Yet could only grin and bear
When Willie wet the bed
tbs many times that rascal has
Soaked all the bed-clothes through
Whereas feebly light the gas
And wonder what to do.
Yet. there he lay, so peaceful like:
God bless his curly head
quite forgave the little tyke
For wetting of the bed
All my! those days have flown,
My boys father, too,
And little WiIlies of his own
Do what he used to do.
And |, ah, all that's left for me
Are dreams of pleasure fled;
Our boys amt what they used to be
When Willie wet the bed
(NOTE. The above is one of the
cutest and most natural of the won
derfully clever poems of child life
by that gifted verse writer known as
the ''Child's Poet" the late and la
mented Eugene Field.
1t was told of Mr.. Field that, when
his wife took the boy away from
home on visit, he found, in their
absence, that he could not sleep
at night till he got up and poured
hot water on his shirt)
