MY SHADOW


I have a little shadow
that goes in and out with me,
And what can be the use of him
is more than I can see.
He is very, very like me
from the heels up to the head;
And I see him jump before me,
when I jump into my bed.



The funniest thing about him
is the way he likes to grow-
Not at all like proper puppies
which is always very slow;
For he sometimes shoots up taller
like an India-rubber ball,
And he sometimes gets so little 
that there's none of him at all.
