Humpty dumpty

on September 13, 2012

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again

This little ditty has been dissected and analyzed by hundreds of literary scholars and nursery rhyme enthusiasts, but I’m just using it here to describe how ghastly this week has been in so many ways – not just for me but for Ming and Anthony too. The good thing is that I have found a way of putting Humpty dumpty together again and he will be sitting back up on his wall again tomorrow with a big smile.

    In Sweden – is’t “Imse Vimse spindel” – http://youtu.be/TwYC4zqnA2g – that the rain flushes away and when the sun comes out again – he get all dry and climes up again. Really cute little song. I suppose Humpty-Dumpty is a spider too.

    “Imse Vimse spindel klättra upp för trå´n.
    Ner faller regnet spola spindeln bort
    Upp stiger solen torka bort allt regn.
    Imse Vimse spindel klättra upp igen”

    You know, I just discovered I wasn’t following you. Surprised me because I feel like I’m here all the time. Now, I’ll never miss your posts.

    Glad you found a way!
    This is synchronistic. I often think of me as Humpty Dumpty…with all the doctors and specialists, and all their tests and machines that couldn’t diagnose me and help put me back together, yet I was in such a debilitated state. They sent me home telling me there was nothing more they could do for me…

  10. Humpty Dumpty actually existed believe or not, he’s now buried somewhere in Colchester Marsh. And he was accompanied in his fall by Royalist Gunner ‘One-eyes’ Thompson. Got to love the random facts you can stumble upon in books you pick up on a whim.
