Pussy in BedWhy is Pussy in bed?

          "She is sick", says the fly,
"And I fear that she will die;,
      And that's why she's in bed."

Pray what's her disorder?
      "A locked-jaw is come on,"
Said the fine , downy swan;
      "And that's her disorder.

Who makes her nice gruel?
      "That she might not get worse
Dog Tray is her nurse,
      And makes her nice gruel."
Punch with his hunch


Pray who is her doctor?
      "I," said famed MisterPunch,
"At my back a great hunch;
      But I am her doctor."

Who thinks she'll recover?
      "I do, sir," said the deer,
"And I thought so last year;
       "I think she'll recover."

And when Puss is quite well,
      All shall have noble fare,
      Beasts and fowls of the air,
And we'll ring the great bell.

************

Ride away, ride away.
Ride away, ride away, Johnny shall ride,
And he shall have pussy-cat tied to one side,
He shall have little dog tied to the other,
And Johnny shall ride to see his Grandmother

***********
As I went over the water, the water went over me;
I saw two little blackbirds sitting on a tree.
The one called me a rascal, the other called me a thief;
I took my blackthorn stick, and knocked out all their teeth.

oh dear, that was different. I hope they found them to give to Fiona the Tooth Fairy, poor black birds

Children's music artist, Eric Herman, sings an incredibly cute song all about elephants... sort of... The video was created by his wife, Roseanne, with the help of their 3 year-old daughter, Becca. The little girl in the song is Meghan from Amherst, NY, who was 6 at the time.

SING A SONG OF PANCAKES

I love pancakesSing a song of pancakes,
Sizzling in the pan;
One for Jack and Alice,
One for me and Ann.
Bet you couldn't eat all these!
Jack had tossed his pancake,
Aren't we having fun?
Ann is watching closely,
Hers is nearly done.

Pancakes with Ice cream, pancakes with LemonAlice stirs the batter,
With the wooden spoon,
Laughs to think her pancake
Will be sizzling soon.
Pancakes with blueberries, Pancakes with Maple Syrup.
There'll be sugar on them,
Nurse puts quite a lot.
When my pancakes finished
I shall eat it hot.

Nursery Rhymes  old King Cole

OLD KING COLE


Old King Cole

Was a merry old soul,
And a merry old soul was he;

He called for his pipe,
And he called for his bowl,
And he called for his fiddlers three!

And every fiddler, he had a fine fiddle,
And a very fine fiddle had he.
“Twee tweedle dee, tweedle dee, went the fiddlers.

Oh, there’s none so rare
As can compare
With King Cole and his fiddlers three
.



WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL


When I was a little girl, about seven years old,
I hadn't got a petticoat, to cover me from the cold.

So I went into Darlington, that pretty little town,
And there I bought a petticoat, a cloak, and a gown.

I went into the woods and built me a kirk,
And all the birds of the air, they helped me to work.

The hawk with his long claws pulled down the stone,
The dove with her rough bill brought me them home.

The parrot was the clergyman, the peacock was the clerk,
The bullfinch played the organ, and we made merry work.


                                                           IF ALL THE SEAS WERE ONE SEA

http://cynthia.boxerman.co.uk/images/Sea%20(1).JPGIf all the seas were one sea,
What a great sea that would be!
And if all the trees were one tree,
What a great tree that would be!
And if all the axes were one axe,
What a great axe that would be!
And if all the men were one man,
What a great man he would be!
And if the great man took the great axe,
And cut down the great tree,
And let it fall into the great sea,
What a splish splash that would be!

I'm afraid the picture from "Kid's Corner," was removed so please find here another.
This picture was commissioned in 1837, from the ‘celebrated Haydon’ - London painter, lecturer and tireless champion of High Art - for the Chapel of the Liverpool Blind Asylum. Built by John Foster in 1819, the neo-classical Chapel stood on the north western corner of Great Nelson (now Lord Nelson) Street and Duncan Street
(part of which remains, now Hotham Street).


Christ Blessing the Little Children, by Benjamin Robert Haydon


These words are taken from the The Gospel According to St. Matthew;
And Jesus said;
"Suffer Little Children to come unto me, for thine is the Kingdom of Heaven."

I have found that there are many website providers
which do not like to share there religious images with us
Do feel free to copy any of mine, but copy,  please don't remove. Thankyou.

DREAM BOATS


Dream boats by zenera.

Soft clouds, evening sky,
Little dream-boats floating by;
Dreams for me and dreams for you
All our dreams that may come true!

Little ships so full of hopes,
Snow-white sails and silver ropes.
Always steered by Goblin-men
Captains kind and Oarsmen ten.

Winds blow soft on my dream-boat,
Let it into harbour float;
I shall meet the homeward tide
Greet my dreams with arms flung wide.



This poem is so beautiful, it is from a very old book entitled
 Fairy Tales by D. M. G. Howells, though I'm not sure if he wrote the verse. 


1.    The Ant and the Cricket.
2.    Baby seeds.
3.    Summer showers.
4.   If I had Three Wishes.
5.   Amy, Annie, Jason & John.
6.   Sand cooking.
7.   My Lady Spring
8.   Sound of the Bell
THE ANT AND THE CRICKET


A silly young cricket, accustomed to sing
Through the warm, summer months of gay summer and spring,
Began to complain, when he found that at home
His cupboard was empty and winter was come.
Not a crumb to be found
On the snow covered ground;
Not a flower could he see,
Not a leaf on a tree:
"Oh what will become," says the cricket, "of me?"


At last by starvation and famine made bold,

Cricket and Ant by Marjorie AndersonAll dripping with wet and all trembling with cold,
Away he set off to a miserly ant,
To see if, to keep him alive, he would grant
Him shelter from rain.A mouthful of grain
He wished only to borrow,
He'd repay it tomorrow:
If not, he must die of starvation and sorrow.


Says the ant to the cricket, "I'm your servant and friend,

But we ants never borrow, we ants never lend;
But tell me my dear sir, did you lay nothing by
When the weather was warm?" Said the cricket, "Not I."
My heart was so light
That I sang day and night,
For all nature looked gay.
"You sang, sir, you say?
Go then." said the ant, "and dance winter away."
Cricket and Ant by Marjorie Anderson

Thus ending, he hastily lifted the wicket

And out of the door turned the poor little cricket.
Though this is a fable, the moral is good:
 If you live without work, you must live without food.

         From Laurel and Gold 1958 picture by Marjorie Anderson
   

 
Baby Seeds
sycamore seeds and keys
sycamore keys and seeds
In a milkweed cradle, snug and warm,
Baby seeds are hiding, safe from harm,
Open wide the cradle, hold it high!
Come, Mr Wind, help them fly.

   

A SUMMER SHOWER

"Hurry!" said the leaves; "Hurry, birds, hurry!
See how the tall trees are all in a flurry!"



"Come under, quick, grasshopper, cricket!"
Said the leafy vines down in the thicket.

"Come here," said the rose to bee and spider;
"Ant, here's a place! Fly, sit beside her!"

"Rest, butterfly, here in the bushes,
Close by the robin, while the rain rushes!"

"Why, there is the sun! And the birds are singing.
Good-bye, dear leaves, we'll all be winging."

"Bee," said the rose, "thank you for calling!

Come in again when the rain is falling."

  SAND COOKING

Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, in the bright sun,
Bake me a pie and bake me a bun.cherry pie
Our cream's from the ocean,
our sugar's dry land,
And the plums are the pebbles
that grow in the sand.

                                                                                                 


My lady Spring


My Lady Spring

My Lady Spring is dressed in green,
She wears a primrose crown,
And little baby buds and twigs
Are clinging to her gown.
The sun shines if she laughs at all,
But if she weeps the raindrops fall.
