A quotation from A. A. Milne

Halfway down the stairs
Is a stair
Where I sit.
There isn’t any
Other stair
Quite like
It.
I’m not at the bottom,
I’m not at the top;
So this is the stair
Where
I always
Stop.

A. A. Milne (1882-1956) English poet and playwright [Alan Alexander Milne]
When We Were Very Young, “Halfway Down,” st. 1 (1924)

A quotation from A. A. Milne

When I was One,
   I had just begun.
When I was Two,
   I was nearly new.
When I was Three,
   I was hardly Me.
When I was Four,
   I was not much more.
When I was Five,
   I was just alive.
But now I am Six,
   I’m as clever as clever.
   So I think I’ll be six now
   for ever and ever.

A. A. Milne (1882-1956) English poet and playwright [Alan Alexander Milne]
Now We Are Six, “The End” (1927)

A quotation from A. A. Milne

So wherever I am, there’s always Pooh,
There’s always Pooh and Me.
“What would I do?” I said to Pooh,
“If it wasn’t for you,” and Pooh said: “True,
It isn’t much fun for One, but Two
Can stick together,” says Pooh, says he.
“That’s how it is,” says Pooh.
