Panky-Doodle Ker-Chuggetty-Chug!
Another anonymous choice this week: a nonsense poem called “To Marie”.
A Foaming Sea Brimful of Ale
As another birthday rolls around, I find myself choosing a poem that is something of a mystery, called simply “Ambiguous Lines” by an unknown hand.
‘Tis Six Years
This week’s choice is “The Lost Spectacles” by an unknown author. I have chosen it for Rachel, who sometimes is able to find her glasses.
Excitement Was Mounting to Felvoir
This week I have chosen a poem that is more a loose collection of limericks, titled “Nomenklaturik”. The perpetrator(s) have chosen to remain anonymous…
Ye Ugly Witch
This week’s choice is “Alison Gross”, an anonymous ballad about a witch whose spell is broken on Hallowe’en.
Drunken Pride
The anonymous author of this short poem adroitly imagines one of the embarrassing situations that can arise when one has taken rather too much and provides an amusing punchline.
Hope Springs
This week’s theme is Spring, or at least the hope of it.
