Poetry Friday: Little King Boggen

Little King Boggen He Built a Fine Hall - Mama Lisa's House of English Nursery Rhymes, Intro Image
Illustration by Frederick Richardson, Mother Goose, Volland Edition (1915)

LITTLE KING BOGGEN
Little King Boggen, he built a fine hall,
Pie-crust and pastry-crust, that was the wall;
The windows were made of black puddings and white,
And slated with pan-cakes,- you ne’er saw the like!

I'm craving some pancakes now, on this Poetry Friday!
