When you see this, post a poem in your journal.

Moses supposes his toeses are roses.
But Moses supposes erroneously,
For nobody's toesies are posies of rosies,
As Moses supposes his toeses to be!

(From Mother Goose)

My dad recited that poem to me when I was a kid!

Thanks for the recovered memory. :)

My pleasure!

I always loved the way the second line ends in "Erroneously," even before I knew what the word meant... I just liked the way it sounded.

You can blame my wanting to be a writer on Mother Goose, I guess...

And she is a very witchy woman, to boot!
