While this topic requires some analyses, please note the tragedy of our children learning: ‘Baa, baa, black sheep’ – considering there are no black sheep in the world; yet I hear kids chorusing with gusto. Who cares whatever the nonexistent sheep sells, as long as we can raise a din.
Perhaps instead of throwing such powerful melodies we should adapt it to:
Baa, baa white sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full.
Moo, moo, brown cow, have you any milk?
Yes sir, yes sir, two jars full
Pithy.
Then I thought of one with choo, choo steam engine, locomotive. Late & outdated.
Long time ago, I sent a similar message to an Indian the gist being: Instead of wooing and getting wooed with your God gifted talent can you please, please write some poems for our children?
AT least 1 poem. After all, generosity begins at home. More melodies serenades in the Poems forums. I received Silence.
Now, as I develop this booklet for kids, these not-so-little things, hit hard. So much encouragement from Tom, Crystal and recently Bonnie. Takes the booklet to a new level.
Apart from the poets, also to the 3-letter-word geniuses (truly admirable) - I appeal openly.
