whats so scary about Humpty Dumpty?

"When I was very little, my mother would read nursery rhymes to me. I always hated "Humpty Dumpty." That's a very scary poem. No one knows how to put it back together again—not all the king's horses or all the king's men. No one wants to think that there's anything in the world that could fall apart that badly, but of course...anything can. I guess that's what's so scary about "Humpty Dumpty."" Allie Keys

  1. I know a little sweetheart (1 n half yr old) who loves the song..maybe because he doesnt know what it really means ..

    It doesnt have to be that scary you know..once an egg falls there might be a beautiful chick inside..or u could be the invisible one whose been sent to put it together again..
