I guess it was about thunder and lightning. Other than that I have no idea. You did a great job of picking some nonsensical words that are hard to figure out. What was the rest of it about?

    It's really not about anything real except whatever you conjur in your head in your backyard when you read those words -- LOL! ;) ;) I think 'out in the yard' was really the only 'anchor' to this one! ;) ;) Thanx for dropping in for the review, sir! ;) ;)

This is really interesting and creative and tells a calming story of lots of green and creature-like images. It brings the reader into a scene of pleasant imagery. The words you use to try and sound out is fun. It's intellectual and witty with a sense of humour and adventure. A very creative and colourful poem. I like the picture to match the presentation and colours of the poem as well, and the font and font size are fitting. Excellent!

Well I think you met the criteria for nonsense. I'm glad I looked to see what type of poem or I would have been completely lost. =} Really great work, very clever at making up words. I am always making up words. Hope you do well in the contest.

Well you fulfilled the brief here with your nonsensical poem, perhaps the trees and the animals have their own language here, best of luck with the contest, love Dolly x

I love your offering to the nonsense poem contest. But it makes perfect sense to me! I adore your poem's title and all the activity contained in the poem, its colour and sound are vivid. It is almost like an old Norse fairytale story.

Haha! Loved this! I read through the poem and was thinking to myself 'I can't believe there are so many words in the English language I don't know... I can't understand this piece at all; that's embarrassing.' Then I read the Writing Prompt competition rules and it all made sense!

Dear Author,
Your Nonsense poem entry is wonderful! I love the face in the Elm tree and the animals make it so enchanting! Your well-written verses make your poem easy to follow and clear. Also I found your verse, "'Midst ehrshuls found in thunder's peal" excellent!
My best,
Deborah

Hi Contest Author,

Ha ha ha! This is a great contest entry for the nonsense verse competition. It is very well written and your visual presentation is excellent and complements your verse perfectly. Where did you find that great image? Thanks for sharing and good luck.

Jan
