Little Johnny went to sleep
A full nineteen hours deep
When he woke the world had changed
Nothing had remained the same
The sky was red instead of blue
All the flowers had lost their hue
Rats had come out from their holes
Flags had come down from their poles
In the streets the children cried
Sitting by their mother’s side
The man waged wars for their land
No one cared to understand
The black birds chirped a solemn song
Everything was simply wrong
When there was no hope to keep
Little Johnny went back to sleep
Month: August 2024
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Stirred A Comb
Little Johnny stirred a comb
Out came flying from their home
A hundred million honeybees
Who were not very pleased
Little Johnny screamed and ran
As quick as Little Johnny can
But his running was in vain
The swarm stung him without restrain
The bees they had a lot of fun
Chasing the naughty young person
Till the kid jumped in a pool
And was made to look like a fool
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Kicked A Ball
Little Johnny kicked a ball
Straight out into space
It flew for miles until it found
An orange martian’s face
The orange martian came to Earth
With one goal in mind
“Teach me how to kick,” he said
“If you’d be so kind.”
Little Johnny showed him how
In him he found a friend
Now every week they go out
To play for hours on end
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Knocks On My Door
Little Johnny knocks on my door
He quickly runs away
Little Johnny knocks on my door
This game he loves to play
Little Johnny knocks on my door
He does it every day
Little Johnny knocks on my door
I’m going to make him pay
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Dyed His Hair
With a bold tinge of purple
Little Johnny dyed his hair
But nothing rhymes with that colour
It’s something he couldn’t bear
So off he went again to dye
This time with an orange hue
Soon he found that this colour
Had no rhyming to it too
Desperately he made a choice
This time a silver paint
For the same reason this
Too finished in a plaint
After three futile efforts
He couldn’t take it anymore
He reverted his hair colour
To the one it was before
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Learned A Magic Trick
Little Johnny learned a magic trick
Turned a cat into a stick
Turned the stick into a dough
Turned the dough into a crow
Turned the crow into a van
Turned the van into a man
Turned the man into a book
Turned the book into a hook
Turned the hook back into a cat
Then he got tired after that
He could have gone on and on
Instead he went yawn and yawn
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Bought A Haunted House
Little Johnny bought a haunted house
Inside he found a solitary mouse
The disappointment ran across his face
At having bought such a peaceful place
To his agent he promptly went
And demanded refund of every cent
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Sipped Some Wine
Little Johnny sipped some wine
But the taste wasn’t very fine
So he sipped it one more time
To leave no question in his mind
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Went To A College
Little Johnny went to a college
To try and get a little knowledge
For all he ever did in school
Was chew gum and be a fool
Nursery Rhyme: Little Johnny Hated Little Ross
Little Johnny hated little Ross
Mean bully and very gross
One day when he demanded lunch
Or be dealt a vicious punch
Johnny offered him a deal
An orange balloon from Brazil
Greedily he grabbed the balloon
And off he went flying to the moon
P.S. Congratulations to myself
