"Lucy Locket lost her Pocket" is a traditional English nursery rhyme that has been a part of children's literature for centuries. The rhyme was popularized in its illustrated form by Kate Greenaway, a renowned English children's book illustrator and writer of the late 19th century. Greenaway's work was characterized by her delicate and romantic depiction of children and nature, which brought a new level of charm to the nursery rhymes she illustrated.

The rhyme itself is brief and tells the story of Lucy Locket, a girl who loses her pocket and Kitty Fisher, another girl, who finds it. Notably, the "pocket" in the rhyme refers to a small fabric pouch, often tied around the waist, which was used in the past before the integration of sewn-in pockets in clothing. The rhyme is often accompanied by a simple melody, making it a popular choice for singing with young children.

Kate Greenaway's version of "Lucy Locket lost her Pocket" was included in one of her most famous books, "Mother Goose or the Old Nursery Rhymes" (1881), which was a collection of traditional nursery rhymes. Greenaway's illustrations for this and other rhymes in the collection were notable for their idyllic and nostalgic portrayal of childhood, and they played a significant role in shaping the visual culture of children's literature during the Victorian era.

The book itself became a classic, with Greenaway's illustrations defining the visual representation of many English nursery rhymes for generations. Her work was influential in the development of children's book illustration, and her style continues to be appreciated for its beauty and historical significance. The rhyme "Lucy Locket lost her Pocket," along with Greenaway's accompanying illustrations, remains a beloved piece of children's literature and an example of the enduring appeal of traditional nursery rhymes.
