Some Nursery Rhymes- 1

Rating: 5.0


1 'Gran, gran, what's the time now'
Joe asked her in voice low
Gran turned to see the clock so
But a dog barked then 'wow wow'
Shocked gran simply yelled 'no, no'
Angered Joe on that 'no, no'
Herself cried aloud 'go, go'
'O.k, o.k 'gran said'I go now'

2 'Only pizza, no dosa' said Asha
'Only dosa, no pizza'said Liza
'Alright, dosapizza' Asha, Liza
Mamma then said 'just for free of paisa'

3.Under the mango tree we sit
Waiting for a mango to hit
For nine of us to eat our bit
Little while a mango does hit
We rush to cut fine each our bit
But lo, forgot the knife to get

What so if there the knife is not
Pick up some stones the fruit be hit
What so if there the knife is not
We have in the mouth teeth a lot
Easy 'bite a bit' than the cut
Munching is nice in the mouth shut

Dear madam, you have so nicely delineated the series of nursery rhymes which are to be enjoyed by children and adults. The concluding stanza is much impressive. Without knife mango can be cut and eaten as munching is nice in the mouth shut. Appreciated. Thanks for sharing.10

This is a lovely series of nursery rhymes! Enjoyed the one on mangoes most! That's how we used to behave while still young! Never bothered to look for a knife! Our sharp teeth very well served the purpose! I am sure children will love these rhymes! A full 10

Such a Sweetie Cutie nursery rhyme! Dosa pizza is an innovative treat! Nothing like eating a mango 'bite a bit" ! A poem not just for children but adults too can enjoy it thoroughly. Lovely poem Indira Ma'm........10
