Spring has sprung The grass is riz I wonder where dem boidies is? Some say da boid is on da wing But dat’s absoid β I always thought da wing was on da boid…
Phlyarologist (part-time) and pendant. Campaigner for action against anthropogenic global warming (AGW) and injustice in all its forms. Humanist, atheist, notoftenpist. Wannabe poet, writer and astronaut.
I always enjoyed my Dad’s rendition of it… he was wont to spout it at least once each time Spring rolled around.
Although I like to think of it as ‘his’ verse, I’m sure he got it from elsewhere. I did try a search to try to discover its origin, but could only find (many!) variations of it. So since I couldn’t find one that was exactly the same as his, I guess one could claim this variant was his :)
A ‘big reveal’? Well, I have to admit that I continue to live in hope that homo fatuus brutus may one day finally realise that it needs to collectively pull its head out of its behind. Maybe this Earth Day? Who knows?

I liked it cause it flowed nicely and rhymed.
Someone said once there’s no such thing as an original idea it’s a previous one expressed differently. You follow what I mean….

I do indeed. As Yoda might have said, “Under the Sun, nothing new there is”!
