A New Word Whizzed By - Nonsense Contest

A new word whizzed by just under me nose It tickled me moustache-hairs and teased me toes Amused and amazed I sputtered alive but that whizzy new word bzzzz'ed back to its hive So I took out me air-horn which gave me a shiver ~ Put me moustache-hairs and me toes back in me quiver September 09, 2021 Nonsense Rhyme Poetry Contest Sponsor: Charles Messina

Great entry, Gershon. Another one that when I read it a second time it made me LOL. Witty and fun to read. Congratulations on your placement. Hope all is well... ~CM

Hello Gershon ... all these light hearted nonsense rhymes are great because they give us a break from thinking about covid, wars, and politics, so thanks for joining in Gershon - Lindsay

A cute, clever one, Gershon. Good luck in the contest. Reading these poems has been so much fun. I'm glad I'm not Charles!

You are right about all the entries in this contest, Milt. They are sooooo good, except mine which is pretty pedestrian, I know... I just thought I'd fill up another spot in the contest, so Charlie could get the results out faster... At any rate, thanks again and again for all of the support. Happy Thursday evening, Gershon
