Half-term in the UK has nearly ended for
some, but for others it is just about to begin. Hooray! I hear both children –
and their teachers say. But for Mums, Dad’s and other carers, an extra
distraction over the next few days might be helpful. Here’s another nonsense
rhyme about an ‘Oddkreecher’ from ‘Zudey’s
Zoo’ called Blig. All the Oddkreechers and the story of the Zoo can be found by Clicking Here
BLIG; She's Big!
Round the scubilaceous tree
I saw Blig and Blig saw me:
she was roughly ninety-three
times as high as my shoulder.
As we chased each other round
I thought I’d sit upon the ground,
Blig tried but she quickly found
she could only get low as a boulder.
That boulder was a massive rock
and I could hardly see the top:
it seemed as if it did not stop
until the air got colder
Which now I think might have explained
why Blig’s five faces all looked pained,
As from them all the colour drained
When she jumped up from the boulder.
