'Be inspired by a Nursery Rhyme or Fairy Tale' is the challenge for this week.
I chose this nursery rhyme:
London bridge is falling down
London Bridge is falling down, Falling down, falling down, London Bridge is falling down, My fair Lady.
Build it up with wood and clay, Wood and clay, wood and clay, Build it up with wood and clay, My fair Lady.
Wood and clay will wash away, Wash away, wash away, Wood and clay will wash away, My fair Lady.
Build it up with bricks and mortar, Bricks and mortar, bricks and mortar, Build it up with bricks and mortar, My fair Lady.
Bricks and mortar will not stay, Will not stay, will not stay, Bricks and mortar will not stay, My fair Lady.
Build it up with iron and steel, Iron and steel, iron and steel, Build it up with iron and steel, My fair Lady.
Iron and steel will bend and bow, Bend and bow, bend and bow, Iron and steel will bend and bow, My fair Lady.
Build it up with silver and gold, Silver and gold, silver and gold, Build it up with silver and gold, My fair Lady.
Silver and gold will be stolen away, Stolen away, stolen away, Silver and gold will be stolen away, My fair Lady.
Set a man to watch all night, Watch all night, watch all night, Set a man to watch all night, My fair Lady.
Suppose the man should fall asleep, Fall asleep, fall asleep, Suppose the man should fall asleep? My fair Lady.
Give him a pipe to smoke all night, Smoke all night, smoke all night, Give him a pipe to smoke all night, My fair Lady.
Some history on the bridge: The 'London Bridge is falling down' nursery
rhyme is based on the one of the most famous landmarks in London. It's
history can be traced to the Roman occupation of England in the first
century. The first London Bridge was made of wood and clay and was
fortified or re-built with the various materials mentioned in the
children's nursery rhyme. Many disasters struck the bridges - Viking
invaders destroyed the bridge in the 1000's which led to a fortified
design, complete with a drawbridge. Building materials changed due to
the many fires that broke out on the bridge.
