Hi, F.i.in.e and Rik, just came across your charming Jabberwocky challenge and could'nt resist writing this nonsense rhyme. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it?


Whoncky Toncky Zonky and Spice... (Jabberwocky challenge)

I jumble and tumble and grumble away
Wocky and bocky and go on my way
Into the darky and barky of nights
Whooshes and booshes and porky pies

But, when I'm groaning and moaning away
Then I am mostly on mireless quay
Mumble and shumble in grotesque way
Of cheese and bread and moon and mice

So, if see me soar high and wye
Into the endless boomless sky
Don't get whoncky toncky with me
'Cause I'm goanna be zonky and nice

To write this nonsense rickety rhyme
I'm gonna ask the bell to chyme
Toggle me out o'the bed at night
And add pickle and sugar and spice...

"Shumble" is a wonderful verb; I suspect I have been doing it for years... :-,?
