Nursery Rhymes!

In marble walls as white as milk,
Lined with skin as soft as silk;
Within a fountain crystal clear,
A golden apple doth appear.
No doors there are to this stronghold --
Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.

Its a riddle, the answer is pretty typical but I LOVE it! I have a thing for lovely riddles like this..
P.S.
Its an Egg.

In Spring I look gay,
Decked in comely array,
In Summer more clothing I wear;
When colder it grows,
I fling off my clothes,
And in Winter quite naked appear.

Another riddle, the answer of which wasn't listed. I think its a tree. If anyone knows better, feel free to correct me?

I love rhymes that pertain to curls because when my hair is shorter than it is now, its crazy curled. Its getting weighed down to wavy now, but this is the longest it's ever been. I've been a curly haired girl my whole life.

Curly Locks, Curly Locks,
Will you be mine?
You shall not wash dishes,
Nor feed the swine,
But sit on a cushion
And sew a fine seam,
And sup upon strawberries,
Sugar, and cream.

And this one that I've heard a few times from other people;

There was a little girl,
Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
When she was good,
She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

I've been thinking of getting a nursery rhyme tattoo.. I just think they're really interesting, simple, and often have historical subtext.

I just find this really sweet;

Come to the window,
My baby, with me,
And look at the stars
That shine on the sea!
There are two little stars
That play bo-peep
With two little fish
Far down in the deep;
And two little frogs
Cry "Neap, neap, neap;"
I see a dear baby
That should be asleep.
trills:
Have you read any of Sing-Song by Christina Rossetti? I really like it smile

"Lie a-bed, Sleepy head,
Shut up eyes, bo-peep;
Till daybreak. Never wake:--
Baby, sleep."
