At one of my #Easter singing gigs, the message used the humble #egg as a symbolic #metaphor. Part of the discourse made reference to a shattering egg and I thought immediately of Humpty Dumpty.

Then I began to wonder why #HumptyDumpty became an anthropomorphic egg when the #MotherGoose nursery rhyme doesn’t mention calcium carbonate ovoids at all. 🤔

And now I will always associate a children’s poem and #entropy and #horses and #men failing to assemble a #puzzle with a Christian festival day. 🥚

"There Was An Old Woman Who Lived In a Shoe"
Teableau for 11/22/25

...With so many children,
She didn't know what to do.
Once all of those kids Finally moved away,
She got a rat terrier
And enjoyed every day.

Monday's child is fair of face.
Tuesday's child is full of grace.
Wednesday's child is full of woe.
Thursday's child has far to go.
Friday's child is loving and giving.
Saturday's child works hard for a living.
And the child that was born on the Sabbath day is bonnie and blithe and good and gay.

Thinking of Wednesday Adams.

when your goose is cooked
it is never too late to
honk and be happy!

Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of #gravy.
Jack fell down with eyes of brown,
And Jill ran off to join the navy.
