Nonsense Rhyme.

 

 

Write me a rhyming poem with words you wouldn't usually see linked together . The poem needs to have a rhythm and flow to it, if it doesn't it won't win. Your poem doesn't need to make any sense at all.



Silly Example :

 



Mutilated membranes, doughnut solitaire
corrugated spiders, Princes of Bel-Air.
Effervescent yardsticks, breathing maggot rhyme
legs of cindered cupcakes, meltingly sublime.

 

 

 

 

Prewrites are fine but they must meet the criteria.

 

Have fun.

    Many, many thanks everybody. The standard of entries was stunning, simply stunning. I haven't had chance to comment on all the entries as the contest closed far more quickly than I expected. But I will do.
