Humpty Twiddle 
And 
Swimming Fish

I am talking about a great wish
We are looking at something swish
For this month's article

Hey kids?

Have you been wondering where I have been?
Did you think I was getting mean?
I didn't write to you on time it seems
Have you wondered what had happened?

Twiddling you fingers 
All this while
I have got something 
That will make you smile
Will you forgive me for my absence?

You should see 
Where I have been,
It's been like living in a dream!
Together with friends 
Been making the biggest scene,
That you can imagine!

I've been with mates out by the coast,
There the kind of buddies 
About which you would boast,
I really treasure their friendship the most
Do you appreciate your friendships?

Humpty Didle 
And 
Humpty Tile 

Together we rustling up a wall,
It took a long time to start at all,
We just don't know how long it will take us,
So when we finish 
We will smile
We will call it a miracle!
And that will be just fabulous!

---

Would you like to see our scene?

Humpty Didle
And
Humpty Smash

We smashed up those tiles now
Crash, Crash, Crash!
We hit them with a hammer
Bash, Bash,Bash!
Until they were quite little.
Bigger

Don't you laugh now 
Don't be mean,
No funny comments until you have seen 
Our amazing finished product!

Humpty Didle
And
Humpty Tile

You might be waiting the longest while
Will you be patient and see our tiles?
It is a ceramic mural artwork.

We've been smashing tiles
In the greatest haste
Not too quick though
Haste makes waste!
Gluing tiles with special paste
To 'Besser Blocks' that were ugly

They were cold and they were gray
They will be beautiful soon I would say
That's what we are planning anyway
Will you join us on our journey?

Be understanding of our masterpiece of work
(Don't you tease now - don't you smirk!)
If you can't see a sea scene yet ???????
From the beginning work,
Well then "Use Your Imagination!"

Humpty Didle
And
Humpty Art

Let's get this straightened right from the start
While I am out working you best do your part
So that we all get some learning

Humpty Diddle
And 
Humpty Doo

Get your self some cardboard
