Answer 1

For a nonsense poem, I really like Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!

Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun

The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:

Long time the manxome foe he sought --

So rested he by the Tumtum tree,

And stood awhile in thought

And as in uffish thought he stood,

The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,

Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,

And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! and through and through

The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!

He left it dead, and with its head

He went galumphing back.

"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?

Come to my arms, my beamish boy!

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"

He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

And the mome raths outgrabe.

Answer 3

Yeah...what about funny poems!

My Chipmunk Loves Nuts

My chipmunk loves nuts;

He eats them everyday.

He even tried to juggle them

and kicked them yesterday.

He brings them everywhere he goes

in his spacious cheek.

He even spat the nuts at me

to hurt my nose, last week.

He expects me to bake a

nut cake for his birthday.

He even tried to build on his tree

a nut-made cafe.

Do you know what will happen if I

ruin his nut-made huts?

He will get really mad at me

and of course, he’ll drive me nuts.

Study!

Sam's mother was asking Sam to study

to prepare for his test.

"Studying is too boring,"  he said,

"I’d rather join a drawing contest."

“Study,” Said his mom again,

“Don’t play your computer game.

If you do you’re going to regret it

and you’ll be in such a shame.”

His mom kept on pursuing him,

until he went to bed.

Tomorrow was Sam's test

but he got rocks in his head.

Sam went to school the next day;

He was nervous and scared.

He blindly did his test;

He was not prepared.

He received his report book;

He got 4 E's and a D.

His mom said, “For a year

no computer and KFC!”

I'm a Vegetable

I'm a vegetable, some grapes

and two quite large potatoes.

I am a carrot, an onion,

and two not so big tomatoes.

I'm two bananas, two apples,

and two slices of cheese bread.

I'm a watermelon that is

as big as your head.

I'm two oranges, two pears

which are delicious juicy fruits.

I am also a lotus, which means

you can eat my roots.

I'm all these food

because I am what I eat

from my watermelon head

to my banana feet.

Hunting for an Elephant

I was hunting for an elephant.

I searched in many lands

while the sticky grass and dirt

stick on my feet and hands.

There were giraffes,

some lions and a rhino,

a bison and an ostrich,

and a hungry armadillo.

At last, I found an elephant

which was lying on the grass.

I picked up my gun and shot it;

dragging it was very crass.

I put it on my truck

and I drove across the bridge.

And now my question is:

How to put it in the fridge?

The Monster

One sunny day, when I escaped from school,

I met a monster which was starting to drool.

It looked at me and licked its lips

and used its hands to grab my hips.

It stared at me and rubbed its tummy.

It licked its lips; then it said, “Yummy!”

I stared at it and perspired in fear

as the monster smiled and shook its rear.

It tossed me high up to the air;

I thought I was having a nightmare.

I screamed and shouted as I sank

into its yucky mouth which really stank.

The monster tasted me and said, “Yucky!”

It spat me out; I was quite lucky.

I flew out of the monster’s mouth

like a cannonball; I was heading south.

I thought it would be my last,

but I landed at the entrance of my class.

And because I escaped from my school,

my teacher whacked me like a fool.

What the Principal Said

"You can have as much

food as you like.

You can bring to school

your mountain bike

"You can do whatever

you like at school.

You can run in class,

you can laugh like a fool."

Screams and shouts

and 'hoorays' are heard

when the principal nearly

completed his word.

"You can do anything;

There are no rules!

And one more thing:

April Fools!"

Creeping out of Class

Math is so boring I crept

out of my classroom.

I had to be careful not to

fall down with a 'boom!'

In a minute, I would be

out of school; you could tell.

But I was distracted by a

nice and tasty smell.

The lunch lady was making

'Delicious Dessert Supreme'

and put in chocolate nuts

and strawberry cream!

I was running to the smell

faster and faster.

Then I bumped into someone –

It was the headmaster!

He looked angrily at me

since I got his attention,

and that is how I ended

up in detention.

Answer 4

Nonsense

politicians don't lie,

promises a pigs eye,

to do or try,

we know why,

mothers cry,

life a lie,

we never die

the rich get poorer,

the poor get richer,

they call you mister,

meet an alien visitor,

better odds with a twister

sale means craving

taxing promotes saving,

bathing then shaving,

road workers paving,

preachers raving,

neighbors waving

the economy is sound,

taxes equal all around

the President crowned,

craters upside down mounds,

job security, solid ground

education improving,

students deluding

teachers intruding,

nothing profound,

archaic sound

foolishness abound,

unstable ground,

wherever nonsense is found
