Nonsense

[crystalwizard]

Fifteen sheep and a big fat rat
all ran away from a small, skinny cat.

They jumped over logs.
They jumped over trees.
They tripped over hogs.
They skinned up their knees.

A silly old mouse
with his nose in the air
bit into a fig
and a peach and a pear.

Nine turtles crawling
across the back lawn,
a penguin, a duck,
a chick, and a fawn
all stood around
and loudly did sing,
while little miss Mary
her toys she did fling

Too bad it all ended.
We had quite a blast.
The day that miss Elrond
brought brownies to class!

I thought it was wonderful nonsense.

Me too.

Thanks, guys.

Reminds me of the nonsense poem we used to recite when I was a kid - about 55 years ago.

One fight day in the middle of the night,
two dead men got up to fight,
back to back they faced each other,
drew their swords and shot each other.
