<p>The spring is sprung, the grass is riz.</p>

<p>I wonder where the boidie is.</p>

<p>They say the boidie’s on the wing.</p>

<p>But that’s absoid. The wing is on the bird.  -- Author Unknown</p>

<h2 data-id="translation-of-the-rhyme-into-standard-english">Translation of the rhyme into Standard English</h2>

<p>Spring is here and the grass has grown.</p>

<p>I wonder where the bird is hiding?</p>

<p>They say the bird is “on the wing” (flying).</p>

<p>But that’s absurd. (It’s the other way around.) The wing is on the bird. CM</p>
