I always liked the ryme as a kid,
I'd say it till my siblings were insane.
For me it was a cute little story,
For them it was boring and plain.
Now that I've grown up more,
It still means a lot to me.
But it's because of the lessons taught,
By the little tale of Humpty Dumpty.
The King and his men tried to help,
When Humpty fell all apart.
While I'm no King, and I have no men,
Helping is still a good place to start.
So I tell the tale every now and then,
Just to remind myself of what I know.
Even though it's just a little ryme,
There are real Humpty's where ever I go.

I love the way you took it. You gave it a morale and put a lot of meaning into it. This is really ingenious and motivational.

Good Work!
I don't know what the message was,
but I loved it.
I like when you said: I'm no King, and I have no men...
I like this.
Good work.

haha. I did a good job of making myself understood, huh? The message was helping your neighbor, or that's at least what I get out of my favorite ryme. That's why it's my fav.
God Bless
