Nonsense is nonsense

 

 

When was the last time you fell in the water

Drank from a glass that was christened with wine

Jumped on a mattress of Hollywood fodder

Snuffed out a candle before it was time

 

Ran in a circle with never an ending

Sat in a chair where the arms were too tall

Straightened an accent of far eastern trending

Dialed a phone without someone to call

 

Climbed up a hill that was flat as a table

Sang in the key of an unopened lock

Found that your nightmare was only a fable

Started to roll but forgot how to rock

 

Wrote out a poem that everyone hated

Hid in a corner where spiders would play

Answered a question your heart had negated

Rented a room but had no place to stay

 

These are just words of a mind without sleeping

Some are confusing and some they are not

Please do not ask why this poem I’m keeping

There is no reason or I just forgot

 

Sometimes this happens and words start a’ flowing

Making no sense but it isn't a crime

Anne did the same with her practice piece showing

Just a collection of words that may rhyme

 

I have been known for the love I have written

So I must add a few lines that are true

This may be crazy, but know I am smitten

Nonsense is nonsense but I do love you
