Wednesday Morning Nonsense!

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

Les Trois Mousquetaires

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!

It is never too late to learn a witty insult.
