Robert Louis Stevenson - My TreasuresRobert Louis Stevenson - My Treasures

Low
These nuts, that I keep in the back of the nest,
Where all my tin soldiers are lying at rest,
Were gathered in Autumn by nursie and me
In a wood with a well by the side of the sea.
This whistle we made (and how clearly it sounds!)
By the side of a field at the end of the grounds.
Of a branch of a plane, with a knife of my own,
It was nursie who made it, and nursie alone!
The stone, with the white and the yellow and grey,
We discovered I cannot tell HOW far away;
And I carried it back although weary and cold,
For though father denies it, I`m sure it is gold.
But of all my treasures the last is the king,
For there`s very few children possess such a thing;
And that is a chisel, both handle and blade,
Which a man who was really a carpenter made.
