Remember any old silly verses etc you were told as a child

[chunkyfunky]

its raining, its pouring

the old mans snoring

he went to bed and bumped his head

and couldn't get up in the morning

[Joto]

tweedle deedle dumpling

my son john

went to bed with his trousers on

one shoe off and one shoe on

tweedle deedle my son john

 

Thanks chunkyfunky you'd better start printing them off then you won't have to recall them later when your grandchild arrives

i have started to write them down as i remember them, my hubby says he's fed up of all the bits of paper with bits of poems on them.

thanks joto.

there was a crooked man,

who walked a crookes mile

he found a crooked sixpence

against a crooked style

he bought a crooked cat

that caught a crooked mouse

and they all lived together

in a little crooked house

[chunkyfunky]

cobbler, cobbler, mend my shoe

get it done by half past two

stitch it up and stitch it down

then i'll give you half-a-crown

i'm a little teapot, short and stout

here's my handle, here's my spout

when i see the teacups, here me shout

tip me up and pour me out

[Plain Talker]

i'm a little teapot, short and stout

here's my handle, here's my spout

when i see the teacups, here me shout

tip me up and pour me out

 

or, as one member has as their sig-line (slightly paraphrased)

 

"I'm a little teapot, short and stout,

Here's my handle,

here's my... other handle?

OH! Bother, I'm a sugar-bowl!"

Thanks again CF for the rhymes, and I too have bits of papers around our comp because I post on the limerick thread. My hubby doesn't complain though, he only goes on there to do our banking.
