Modern Day Nursery Rhymes  December 3, 2009 - July 3, 2010

Reading and Deliberating

Details

The nursery rhymes that we heard as kids or that we have told are kids are based on something that has happened in history.
I want some modern day nursery rhymes. I will let you use your own judgement on what time frame is modern.
Try to make it something that would be good for children but on the same note if I get enough 'other than children' I could make a book of those also.

Here are examples for inspiration for Nursery Rhymes use them if you want.
* Salem Witch Trials (US)
* WWI
* WWII
* Vietnam
* Korea
* Desert Storm
* Iraqi Freedom
* American Civil War
* American Revolution
* Elvis
* John Lennon
* The Cold War
* The Falling of the Berlin Wall
* Collapse of the Soviet Union
* Spanish-American War (US)
* War of 1812 (US)
* The Alamo
* 9/11
* Katrina
* Napoleon

Please write in your authors note what was your inspiration for your work.
If I get enough good one I am thinking they could go into a book and I could see if it can be published and the proceeds go to a Charity. IF that sounds good start writing!!! And Spread the word to others.
