Who started it? Nobody knew one moment. There was a usual forest Babel, the wind in the trees, the crow of a ****, the cheerful water in the streams. Then came. The Christopher Robin is back. Al said he heard it from rabbit and rabbit said he heard it from piglets and piglets said he just sort of heard it. And Kanga said, why not ask Winnie the pooh. And since that seemed like a very encouraging idea on such a sunny morning, off piglets trotted, arriving in time to find poo anxiously counting his pots of honey. Isn't it odd? Said poo, isn't what odd? Poo rubbed his nose with his paw. They shuffle around when they think I'm not looking a moment ago. There were 11 and now there are only 10. It is odd, isn't it piglets? It's even said piglet. If it's 10, that is and if it isn't, it isn't hearing himself saying this piglet thought that it didn't sound quite right. But Poo was still counting, moving the pots from one corner of the table to the other. And back again, bother said, Pooh. Christopher Robin would know if he was here. He was good accounting. He always made things come out the same way twice and that's what good counting is. But Pooh Piglet began the tip of his nose growing pink with excitement. On the other hand, it's not easy to count things when they won't stay still like snowflakes and stars. But who? And if piglets nose was pink before it was scarlet, now I've made up a hum about it. Would you like to hear it? Piglet? Piglet was about to say that hums were splendid things and whose homes were the best there were. But rumors come first, then he thought what a nice feeling it was to have a big piece of news and to be about to pass it on, then he remembered the hum which people had made up about him. Piglets and how it had seven verses which was more versus than had ever been since time began and that they were all about him. And so he said, oh, yes, pu please. And poo glowed a little because a hum is all very well as far as it goes and very well indeed when it goes for seven verses, but it isn't a real hum until it has been tried out on somebody. And whilst honey is always welcome. It's welcome. Ist of all directly after a hum.
