Nursery Rhymes ( Triple Senryu )

by X Harlea X   Oct 8, 2012


My six year old nephew,
Gets his nursery rhymes in my head,
So I sing them in bed.

He starts with Old McDonald,
And ends with Mary had a little lamb,
Over and over again.

So now I lay trying to
Sleep whilst I keep singing
All his Nursery Rhymes again.

    Lol, this was a good one. And very annoying when things like this happen and you then sing them all night long.

    nice work, and well done for accepting the challange.
