161. Those little songs from childhood,
The ones that are kept in our brains
Like the three men in the rain
In Gloucester? Not here, that is understood
In England, far so far away
I just may go there one day?
162 Now Alice knew about Humpty Dumpty
That egg, who sat and tumbled down
From that high wall, silly Humpty
And that song still rings in my own
Mind, with hidden messages between the lines
One for the child to relate the other for yours’ and mine
163 Now see Tweeddale Dumb and Tweeddale Dee
Didn’t just happen to be, those two twins
Speaking for one and then finishing with the other
Two minds in one are Dumb and Dee
Rhymes that just stay, and give us grins
Singing and ringing with a voice of Mother
(Oh how very clever, and now we suffer.
No don’t tell me that is just a conspiracy?)
164 The number four without fail
Stops me in my tracks, like it wishes
To never happen, to never be writ
What is with it? That blink, that blank
Tell me inner nonsense why is it?
That this one, I seem to fall totally Flat….?
(Impossible fourth, poem of six lines of six
Give me a kick so I can do number five.)
165 Twinkle twinkle little star,
Did you know, that
Mozart wrote this while very small
The child who was to become
The composer of so many tunes, then you fell
So today we hum your music to ads.
(Now that is something to be so proud of,
Commercialize all dead musicians’ lives, to be desensitized.)
166 Now the thing that sticks is six
And those numbers one through to ten
One two buckle my shoe,
And so on we go to the end
Just so we can begin again
Back to that buckle on the shoe
(So there you have Friday’s six of six
I hope Alice is happy with it, because
Wonderland wouldn’t be
Without these infantile rhymes, and ditties
And All I can say to that so be it.
One two pick up sticks three, four
now no more, just knock at that door,
Alice you do have the key, oh how clever.)
