Even More Nonsense Poem by Joseph Enright

Even More Nonsense

Rating: 4.3


When Moses parted
The old Red Sea,
Did he catch fish
To bring home for his tea?
Does a hyena
Think its funny
When for his tea
He eats a bunny?
When the stars come out to play
Where do they go during the day?
Why does the wind not sit still?
Why does water run downhill?
How long for the sea to fill?
Why is the sky oh so blue?
Are fairy tales really true?
When an Asp Cleopatra did poison
Did he have a very good reason?
When the egg was first found
Did it perhaps? just lay on the ground
When the apple on Isaacs head fell,
Did he perhaps feel, unwell?

When Ben flew his kite
High up in the air,
Did Mrs Franklin stand, agape,
And just stare?
When William at an apple he shot
Did Mrs Tell faint.....because of the shock?
When Noah his ark he did float
After two weeks, it wasnt a joke,
He shouted 'Gas masks for all,
And stay upwind,
It would have been better
If we had just sinned! ! ! ! '
