Oh là là ! Pandemic madness

Has it really been twenty years since my nonsense blog started for kids of all ages and animal lovers and then promptly forgotten?. My mother always said I had monkey appetite, maymun iştah!. Just as monkeys do , I pick one banana, take one bite and promptly drop it, and then pick another, then another. Proud to report: I am still an adolecent albeit in a body entering its sixth decade. Check our Snark blog as well.

Wednesday Morning Nonsense!

Edward Lear's A Book of Nonsense continues to be a favorite of Babette and friends!

Les Trois Mousquetaires

To Flush, My Dog

BY ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING

LOVING friend, the gift of one,

Who, her own true faith, hath run,

Through thy lower nature ;

Be my benediction said

With my hand upon thy head,

Gentle fellow-creature ! 

What is bliss?

Asked the child "what is bliss?"

Answered mom: It is

Foolish ness

Bumpy ness

Wacky ness

Zany ness

All neatly packaged in Sappy ness

Then you are in Bliss!

Thursday no scent nonsense

NONSENSE NOSE

There was a girl with a Nose

As long as a hose

Filled with nosegay

poppy bouquet

Bees made it home

And dozed.

Cats

Scratch scratch says the cat!

Little above the shoulder

Little to the right

I'll soon jump and disappear

Meow me before my flight!

When I am weary of me

Forgive me if I bite ye

This is what we felines do

And can!

Besides eating cans of fish

We drink it with a bit of milk

We purr purr alone and like it

Come to you only when we like it!
