Write something that has the 'feel' of a nursery rhyme
Do we have 'new' nursery rhymes? I wrote some pieces 'based on' nursery rhymes about 20 years ago. I've added them as examples.
Little Bo-Peep
Little Bo Peep has lost her Sheep
Does not know where to find them
But those lambkins have smart phones
with GPS and maps
but no brains to use them.
Little Bo Peep counted on the sheep
to help win the election
But they liked Humpty-Dumpty more
He promised greatness
and critical thinking was not a must
Little Bo-Peep lost her sheep
She had no one to blame
She was careless, a bit callous too
Sheep need tending
Sheep need assuring
Sheep can vote
But Little Bo-Peep, she lost them.
