(081) Come Play With Me (Children's Poem)

Rating: 5.0


I found me a fiddle,
decided to play a little.
I walked up and down the street,
and played for those I would meet.

I found jumpin Andy,
he was pretty handy.
I gave him the tambourine,
oh what a weird scene.

We walked and played and sang a little,
Oh there goes Miss Kiddle.
She use to be a school marm,
Who lived on Mr. Peckers farm.

We walked and played and sang some more,
until we reached the corner store.
We danced and danced like jumping jacks.
Then got kicked out by Mr. Hack.

He took the fiddle and tambourine,
then sent us home with a dairy Queen.

I enjoyed this one. The rhymes make it special and so melodic. That Dairy Queen calls up memories.

Tuneful, winsome, and with a touch of nostalgia too. Childhood should always be like this. Warm regards, Sandra
