My cousin Lia and I sat down together last year with a rather large dictionary. Yes, a dictionary. And in the back of this dictionary were lists of words that rhymed with one another. So naturally we decided it was time to combine our sheer genius to produce works of the highest literary merit. And yes, that's right, we succeeded...
Pandemonium in the Gymnasium
by Laura Stogner & Lia Kohl
There was such pandemonium
Inside the small gymnasium
For little Joe the stumblebum
Was being over frolicsome
Endangering the aquarium
By banging on the kettledrum
And big fat Fred was quarrelsome
He hit Joe on the cranium
With a barrel of petroleum
And he did shout “fee-fi-fo-fum!”
And funny Liz did call Fred scum
And his big thumb she did benumb
Joe wobbled in delirium
And Freddy sucked upon his thumb
Which throbbed for a millennium
They need a new curriculum
To bring about some tedium
Ode to Eisenhower
by Lia Kohl & Laura Stogner
As I was walking toward my bower
I spied a single ugly flower
And at the flower I did glower
For it did make me feel so sour
I wandered home with much horsepower
I wanted much to take a shower
The heinous smell did overpower
Smelling something like cauliflower
Which I am loath to devour
My nose and toes I did so scour
My self-esteem if did empower
I did not feel so very dower
So I sand a song of Eisenhower,
A pretty maiden in a tower,
And fancied myself a sunflower
I hope that you have enjoyed this look into literature's next great minds.[And I hope you laughed as much as we did while writing them.]
