Chicken Licken Flip Flop All Fall Down
I was reading that excellent poetry book by Stephen Fry. In it he said anyone can write verse, just for pleasure and fun.
Then I thought about those old nursery rhymes and wondered what a new one would sound like in my head. And this is what came out:
Chicken Licken Flip Flop All Fall Down
Whose lights are out there growing?
Chip chop, chip chop
Chip Chop Chip Chop
Chicken licken flip flop
Chicken licken flip flop
All fall down
What fires are out there glowing?
Chip Chop, Chip Chop
What cries are out there going?
Chip Chop, Chip Chop
Chip Chop Chip Chop
Chicken licken flip flop
Chicken licken flip flop
All fall down
What scythes are out there mowing?
Chip Chop Chip Chop
Chip Chop Chip Chop
Chicken licken flip flop
Chicken licken flip flop
All
fall
down
