In a Missing Rhyme
Nursery Rhymes are a short poem, usually with regular rhyme and
metre, and handed down from generation to generation,
a tale in rhymed verse for children.
Not all Nursery Rhyme are what they seam,
some are from the dark ages, telling stories of death, like the
black plague (Ring a ring a roses) Sometimes political, another
interpretation of "Pop Goes the Weasel" is that it is about silk
weavers taking their shuttle or bobbin (known as a "weasel"), to a
pawnbrokers to obtain money for drinking.
What ever their past meanings, they are with us forever more, and
sang and enjoyed by millions the world over, teaching our children,
even if they are not politically correct they are here to stay.
