Notes About The Poem

School Days Songs-Nursery Rhyme

I learn lots of pleasant songs at my school, Songs about blind mice, or stars like jewels, And animals making sounds, here and there. On Macdonald Farm, sounds are everywhere! Sometimes, we sing of luckless Jack and Jill. Jack had a bad fall, strolling up Bloom Hill. Then there's a magic dragon, known as 'Puff', And ring a ring of roses, plunge down soft. The song of sixpence, always great to sing, With the tunes about small, ugly duckling, And dancing round the maypole, first of May. Then there's a muffin man, not far away. Diddle, diddle, dumpling, we sing of John, And the blue little boy, sleeping at dawn. I love my golden school days, full of tunes, Such fun, like chasing colorful balloons!

Thank you so much for the delight of your lovely comments, Alexis. Since countless nursery rhymes have been made into songs, I thought it would be nice to gather some of them into a children's song. :)
