Each has meaning to one or all of us personally all i learned of these i read as i grew these fun loving rhymes have some meaning or other so i put these up to bring out the childish side!! :) <3 :) <3 :) <3 :) <3 :) <3 :) <3 :) <3 Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. When the blazing sun is gone, When the nothing shines upon, Then you show your little light, Twinkle, twinkle, all the night. Then the traveller in the dark, Thanks you for your tiny spark, He could not see which way to go, If you did not twinkle so. In the dark blue sky you keep, And often through my curtains peep, For you never shut your eye, Till the sun is in the sky. As your bright and tiny spark, Lights the traveller in the dark. Though I know not what you are, Twinkle, twinkle, little star. Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are. How I wonder what you are. Jack be Nimble Jack be Nimble Jack, be nimble, Jack, be quick, Jack, jump over The candlestick. Jack jumped high Jack jumped low Jack jumped over and burned his toe. Do You Know The Muffin Man Do you know the Muffin Man, The Muffin Man, The Muffin Man? Do you know the Muffin Man Who lives in Drury Lane? Yes, I know the Muffin Man, The Muffin Man, The Muffin Man. Yes, I know the Muffin Man Who lives in Drury Lane. Humpty Dumpty Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men Couldn't put Humpty together again. Hush Little Baby Hush, little baby, don't say a word, Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird. And if that mockingbird won't sing, Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring. And if that diamond ring turns brass, Mama's going to buy you a looking glass. And if that looking glass gets broke, Mama's going to buy you a billy goat. And if that billy goat won't pull, Mama's going to buy you a cart and bull. And if that cart and bull turn over, Mama's going to buy you a dog named Rover. And if that dog named Rover won't bark, Mama's going to buy you a horse and cart. And if that horse and cart fall down, You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town. Little Miss Muffet Little Miss Muffet Sat on a tuffet, Eating her curds and whey; Along came a spider, Who sat down beside her And frightened Miss Muffet away.

I am the vessel of my ship, I am to wrestle a little twit. Will you help me find my virginity? I think I've lost it somewhere, Or someone borrowed it. I am a farmer of black beans, I am the Tarmac at the airport, Will you join me for coffee? I think I'm seeding the soil, I found purchase in this toil. I hate traffic and sputnik, I love triptychs and music, Is it you, me and everyone we know? I guess we can play monopoly, Just lay down your weapons, I'm fun you see. Of course you can trust me, I'm not a wet black bean, Can I sing the national anthem? I speak ****** and some other lingo, I read French and women undress. On second thought I'll be a stallion, And yes I'm part French-Italian. How far does it go? I'll tell you what, do you know the muffin man? The one that lives on Drury Lane? If you do open up, let Thomas the train do his run. A hippopotamus would laugh at this, These lines said with such a clever lisp. It'd have to be high as a koala bear, Eating eucalyptus leafs at the fair. I couldn't be more assured of this, I wouldn't be reimbursed to read miss. Doesn't it hurt? Aren't you choking yourself? No me feel no pain, Cookies are like nova cane. Last but not least, It feels better than summer heat, The question everyone is a critic for, Are you happy? If Lois Lane was a ***** Cookie Monster a compulsive eater. Then of course I'm sure.

Experimentally Mental.
Little Miss Muffet Sat on a tuffet, Eating her curds and whey. The little dog laughed, "Jack, jump over the candlestick." Along came a spider, the cat and the fiddle, who sat down beside her and frightened Miss Muffet away. "Hey, ****** ****** "Yes sir, yes sir." Jack be nimble Who lives down the lane. Baa, baa, black sheep, Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring, and one for the little boy who lives in Drury Lane. All the king's horses and all the king's men; To see such sport, don't say a word. "Have you any wool?" "Do you know the Muffin Man?" "Three bags full." And if that diamond ring turns brass, Jack, be quick, Mama's going to buy you a looking glass. One for the master, Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird. One for the dame, Mama's going to buy you a billy goat. Jack jumped high The cow jumped over the moon. Jack jumped low And the dish ran away with the spoon. Jack be nimble, Mama's going to buy you a cart and bull. Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Jack jumped over and burned his toe. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. And if that horse and cart fall down, Hush, little baby, one little Indian boy couldn't put Humpty together again. And if that mockingbird won't sing, ring a ring o' roses, and if that looking glass gets broke, you'll still be the sweetest. Tom, Tom, the piper's son, did you ever see such a sight in your life, as three blind mice stole a pig, and away did run. And if that billy goat won't pull a dog named Rover, see how they run, they all ran after the farmer's wife, and Tom was beat. And if that cart and bull turn over, and the pig was eat, and Tom went crying, Mama's going to buy you A pocketful of posies. And if that dog named Rover won't bark down the street, One little, two little, three little Indians, Mama's going to buy you a horse and cart. Much wants more, and loses all, little baby in town. Three blind mice, who cut off their tails with a carving knife, see how they run. We all fall down.

Of Real Or "FAKE" Memories Earlier today...upon setting feet out a side door, a refreshingly cool rain washed away present woes, and ushered auld lang syne, sans mine earlier childhood quatrain such as the incy wincy spider sung (way out of tune) by my then young mum, yet clear as day she evinced unabashed loved simply and plain, which cherished rarely jogged memory main, lee lost in sigh burr space, perhaps arising some where (over the rainbow...) in toto within my midbrain ah...methought, how perfectly spontaneous I spunkily danced down Drury (er rather Lantern) Lane sudden recollection of real or feigned salad days of yore blessedly carefree, innocently naive, which elapsed many a score years ago poked thru consciousness so vividly, despite at nineteen and four tee Earth's orbitz ago, hence summarily explore thyself as an adorable boy around 'pon the onset of incipient curiosity (i.e. preschooler), aye did unexpectedly bound forth like a midsize dog ecstatic to greet her/his master, the latter played and clowned with four legged woman's/ man's "best friend," where non verbal communication did expound volumes of unconditional mutually symphonic, sympathetic, and symbiotic couched make believe buddies never abandoned me always around:

Tis A Mystery, The Inexplicable Recall...
In the clearance store what we wore was a change of appearance, when or if the mask slips away we buy another one direct from ebay everyone is living the dream. Down at the pawn shop we pop the gold in until we get paid and eventually get old still popping the gold, It's the things we do and what we threw away that make today unacceptable so you stew in your own juices and I'll stew in mine. Pantomime? well it could be if Widow Twankey's buying duty free and bound to me a non celebrity. I put on the make up and fake it some take it seriously, seriously? hard nosed two faced, I am outside and out paced by the Bow Street runners.
