When I was a kid <br />London Bridge was falling down <br />Lil Sally Walker was sitting in a saucer <br />Watching squirrels change nest <br />While lil' Bo Peep searched for her sheep. <br /> <br />Mother Goose was reading nursery rhymes <br />When Red Ridinghood slipped into the forrest. <br />The three bears were friends <br />With the three little pigs <br />And they saw the cow jump over the moon. <br /> <br />When I was a kid <br />Jack and Jill went up the hill <br />While Jack Horner sat in a corner. <br />And the other Jack tried climbing a beanstalk <br />But this fussing chicken <br />Insisted on crossing the road. <br /> <br />When I was a kid <br />There was even an ole lady <br />Who lived in a shoe <br />And a blue boy who liked blowing his horn. <br />But little Miss Muffet <br />Just set on her tuffet <br />While some poor kid's dish <br />Ran away with his spoon.<br /><br />Cecelia Weir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-i-was-a-kid-4/
