One, two, Buckle my shoe;

Three, four, Open the door;

Five, six, Pick up sticks;

Seven, eight, Lay them straight:

Nine, ten, A big, fat hen.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, 
How I wonder what you are. 
Up above the world so high, 
Like a diamond in the sky. 

Hop A Little! 
Jump A Little.
One Two Three 
Run A Little.
Skip A Little.
Tap One Knee 
Bend A Little.
Stretch A Little.
Nod Your Head. 
Yawn A Little.
Sleep A Little.
On Your Bed! 

Ten Little Fingers,

Ten Little Toes, 

Two Little Ears and One Little Nose,
Two Little Eyes that shine so bright,
And one little mouth,
To kiss mother and father GOOD NIGHT!

Yes, we would love to go back to those sweet days. We try to discover the child in us every time we look at our child. Those sweet heavenly memories get refreshed taking us back on a tour to a beautiful world; a world full of new creations, freedom, beauty all around and the warmth of loved ones, known or unknown.

Yes, we would like to re-read the book of Nursery Rhymes.

The Green Crown

The Challenge: Open the book you are reading right now (or a favourite if you aren’t reading anything, oh, and shame on you!), turn to page 33 (or 33% on e-readers) and write a super flash fiction about the first proper noun (person, place or thing) on the page!

One of our favourite book is “501 Must Visit Destinations”. We opened page 33 and the first proper noun we came across is Jozani Park.

The Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park is a 50 km² (19 sq mi) national park of Tanzania located on the island of Zanzibar. It is the only national park in Zanzibar. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jozani_Chwaka_Bay_National_Park). it is the largest park of mature native forest remaining on the island following years of deforestation. The park offers a refuge for many types of mammals and nearly 200 species of birds.

Here is a super-short tale on Jozani Park. We thought of naming it “The Green Crown”.

Here I stand all alone;

In the island of Zanzibar,

Embraced by the reef limestone marine terrace.

Don’t cut me down or I drown,

Never to rise again and shelter you with my ‘Green Crown’.
