Do you have any favourites?

:-D

Here's one of mine..........

1 1 was a racehorse
2 2 was 1 2
1 1 1 1 race
and 2 2 1 1 2

:-D

My horse is there in front of me
Clip-Clopin down the road
He stops and flips his tail straight up
and drops another load ....

More but that's all I can remember :-D

:-D

Thanks for posting it Nolls

I was a lonely little poet....... don'tcha know it!

ICUR
YY4ME!

Also this, which I loved when I was little.

It was springtime in the Rockies
The snow was falling fast
When a bare-footed man with clogs on
Came slowly whizzing past.

He turned a straight corner crooked
To see a dead donkey die
He took out his gun to stab it
And the donkey spat in his eye!

When we were little with a runny nose our Dad taught us this one - with actions

See that soldier over there (run side of hand under nose)
With the red stripe down his trousers ( obvious inn't)

(Not sure my Mum was so keen on it though)

Andysmum we used to write that in a straight line and get the kids to read it ... must try with the g/kids and see if they get it :-)
You show great promise Lay Scozz as a future poet :-)

There was an old man named Michael Finnegan
He grew fat and then grew thin again
Then he died and had to begin again
Poor old Michael Finnegan....Begin again.

:-)

+ endless variations in back of rugby team bus which would be rr'd

lol Rollo......... I'm a Union fan.......... so I probably know it

Cousins played in the 7s for Scotland

No, I'm not naming names :-D

I eat my peas with honey,
I've done it all my life.
It makes the peas taste funny,
But keeps them on the knife.

and...

There was a young lady of Bude
Who went for a bathe in the nude
Her boyfriend said wottom
Magnificent bottom
And smacked it as hard as he cude.

I'll probably get this all wrong......

One fine day in the middle of the night
Three dead men got up to fight

here's where I muck it up, I always add the 2nd bit from another poem

One had a fiddle
One had a drum
One had a pancake stuck to his bum

:-D

If anyone can tell me the correct versions of both the poems I'll be happy

Isn't Google wonderful??

One fine day in the middle of the night,
Two dead men got up to fight.
Back to back they faced each other,
Drew their swords and shot each other.

Thankyou Andysmum

Old mother Hubbard
Went to the cupboard to get the postman a letter
When she got there, the cupboard was bare,
so they.........

Can't post the rest. Usual reasons.

It was a dark and stormy night and three men were crossing a bridge. When one said to the other, Anthony tell us a story, and this is how the story began.

My scottish OH sings this verse when ever anyone says " not last night but the night before"

Not last night but the night before
3 wise monkeys came to the door
One had a fiddle
One had a drum
One had a pancake stuck to his bum

Thankyou Von! As soon as I saw your post, my childhood flashed through my mind :-D Maybe your OH and I went to the same primary school.
