Here we go with my new (and improved?) format for Rhyme and Treason. I put 'em up on Monday, you put in your entries, and at the end of the week, I put them all up, including the one I think "wins." Judged solely by me, Captain Awesome. Gooooooo Awesome! I'm totally humming a theme song right now. I'll also put a weekly easy link there on the side bar for easy navigation as we move further along the days of the week. How's that for magnanimous?Which reminds me, is a volcano that gives a lot of lava "magmanimous?"
This weeks nursery rhyme is "There was an Old Woman who Lived in a Shoe." a-1, a-2, a-you-know-what-to-do!
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
She had so many children, she didn't know what to do.
She gave them some broth, without any bread,
Whipped them all soundly...

...and tucked them in bed.
ReplyDeleteThe bed was to small, and her efforts for nowt:
As she pushed one more in, another fell out.
Though starved and beaten to thinness , they wouldn't stay put.
She wished more had been taken by Athlete's Foot.
