The King was in his Counting House… by carole_sandford

The King was in his Counting House…

…. Counting out his money.
The Queen was in the parlour eating bread & honey.
The maid was in the garden hanging out the clothes….
When down came a blackbird & pecked off her nose.
I was counting the coins that we collect in a piggy bank today & that nursery rhyme went through my head & I thought it would make a reasonable subject.
Well piggy looked well fed.

I remember that rhyme. Coins are kind of losing their value around here. So much of the things we used to use them on are Apple Paid or just rounded off.

@shutterbug49 I think eventually we will be a cashless society. We haven’t opened this pig since before the pandemic!

Pecked off her nose- oh my! And we think those horror movies are graphic! Excellent interpretation of the nursery rhyme.
