    Foreign Children

    Mrs Pacha won't let me read this nursery rhyme to baby Barry. It's by Robert Louis Stevenson and used to be one of my favourites:

    Foreign Children

    Little Indian, Sioux or Crow,
    Little frosty Eskimo,
    Little Turk or Japanee
    O! Don't you wish that you were me?

    You have seen the the scarlet trees,
    And the lions over seas;
    You have eaten ostrich eggs,
    And turned the turtles off their legs.

    Such a life is very fine,
    But it's not so nice as mine,
    You must often, as you trod,
    Have wearied not to be abroad.

    You have curious things to eat,
    I am fed on proper meat;
    You must dwell beyond the foam,
    But I am safe and live at home.

    Little Indian, Sioux or Crow,
    Little frosty Eskimo,
    Little Turk or Japanee
    O! Don't you wish that you were me?

    You must have an enormous penis. Either that, or chocolate flavoured semen. Congratulations; good to see the pills worked for you. I have deduced this from the fact that you have no charm, wit, worldly knowledge, tact or social understanding and therefore must have some special gift with which to attract such an intelligent woman.
    And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

                Are you suprised?

                Recently my mother delivered a copy of this book EPAMINONDAS AND HIS MAMMY'S UMBRELLA: Amazon.co.uk: Constance Egan, A.E. Kennedy.: Books . During my childhood it was considered usual to read such nonsense to children! My daughter got hold of the book and had to be de-programmed.

                Move with the times.

                  She won't let you read the poem to "baby Barry" because "baby Barry" doesn't exist, he's a figment of your warped, attention seeking imagination.

                  Do you get a cheap thrill from posting "borderline" racist material?

                    This from the clown who liberally bandied around the word p**i and got himself banned.
