Down across the mire,
lived the Meaty Bigatoo,
in his fiddly waddy kipple,
on the Doddle by the Skew.

Oh the mighty Skew was thundering
down the Niddler, in a rush,
breaking fiddly waddy kipples,
turning Doddles near to mush!

Well the Meaty Bigatoo,
put the Spoodle into action,
and he wound the Mardy Toodle -
got a snig on said contraption.

Just as Skew came shlapping,
Mardy Toodle got to work,
old Niddler stippled kipples-
and the Toodle tipped the querk!

Meaty Bigatoo were happy,
and the Skew was ribbled raw,
but the fiddly waddy kipple,
and said Spoodle are no more!

There's no nonsense like good nonsense, and this is good nonsense. Have you been dipping into Edward Lear, firefly? Sounds like it, and that's no bad thing.

God i must read some Lear as i have been over and over this, its keeping me busy the flow is good but i must be realy thick coz i don't understand it, i keep breaking it down in to pictures.....what is it that nearly turns to mush?
I like this

This was fun. I admire the silliness of it. Fun to read aloud.
Thanks, it was a pleasant Sunday evening read.

I found it funny. Did not make any sense though.

I don't know what else to say..........sorry.

Hello Lovely, please don't be sorry! This is a nonsense poem, it's not meant to make any sense really, only what you make of it yourself. The fact that you found it funny is good though, thanks for reading.
