Somethings about children stories?

Question by mysweetest666: Somethings about children stories?
Ring around the rosies
Pocket full of posies,
Ashes, Ashes,
We all fall down. . .

This was about the black plauge
The ring was one of the first signs of the deadly sickness
The Posies were stuffed into the pockets of the dead to quench the smell
Ashes to Ashes was the holy saying as the priest blessed the dead
and when you fell down meant when you died. . .

The pie was the boat that would take the ship with about 24 buccaneers inside
Black birds were the pirates obviously and the king was Black beard himself. . .
