Wynken, Blynken, and Nod
Wynken, Blynken, and Nod | Eugene Field
5 posts | 5 read | 1 to read
WYNKEN, BLYNKEN AND Nod one night Sailed off in a wooden shoe Sailed off on a river of crystal light Into a sea of dew . . . So begins Eugene Fields lovely bedtime poem, which tells of three wee fishermen who sail up to the stars, and a boy who imagines it all before he drifts off to sleep. Fields timeless text has lulled generations of little listeners into dreamland, and this version, complimented by Giselle Potters magical illustrations, is perhaps the most enchantingand the closest to Fields own visionof all.

“Wynken and Blynken are eyes,
and Nod is a little head,
and the wodden shoe that sailed the skies,
is a wee one's trundle-bed...“

I really like this poem! It's great for settling down children for quiet time.

As a child this was the edition that fueled my #imagination Sadly, I don't seem to be able to get it with these illustrations anymore. (Though, I'm quite partial to the song these days for bedtimes when I have little ones around) #letstravelaugust @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620
