Little Boy Blue by Eugene Field "Little Boy Blue" is a poem by Eugene Field about the death of a child, a sentimental but beloved theme in 19th-century poetry. Contrary to popular belief, the poem is not about the death of Field's son, who died several years after its publication.
Over a dozen volumes of poetry followed and he became well known for his light-hearted poems for children, among the most famous of which are "Wynken, Blynken, and Nod" and "The Duel" (which is perhaps better known as "The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat"). Equally famous is his poem about the death of a child, "Little Boy Blue".
Little Boy Blue, Come blow your horn. The sheep's in the meadow, The cow's in the corn. Where is the boy Who looks after the sheep? He's under the haystack, Fast asleep. Will you wake him? No, not I, For if I do, He's sure to cry.
