A Dream by Edgar Allen Poe

In visions of the dark night
I have dreamed of joy departed-
But a waking dream of life and light
Hath left me broken-hearted.

Ah! what is not a dream by day
To him whose eyes are cast
On things around him with a ray
Turned back upon the past?

That holy dream- that holy dream,
While all the world were chiding,
Hath cheered me as a lovely beam
A lonely spirit guiding.

What though that light, thro' storm and night,
So trembled from afar-
What could there be more purely bright
In Truth's day-star?

My First Time

The sky was dark
The moon was high
All alone
Just her and I
Her hair so soft
Her eyes so blue
I knew just what
She wanted to do
Her skin so soft
Her legs so fine
I ran my fingers
Down her spine
I didn't know how
But I tried my best
To place my hand
On her breast
I remember my fear
My fast beating heart
But slowly she spread
Her legs apart
And when she did it
I felt no shame
All at once
The white stuff came
At last it's finished
It's all over now
My first time ever
Milking a cow

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
did gyre and gimble in the wabe
All mimsy were the borogoves,
and the momraths outgrabe

Beware the Jabberwock my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the jubjub bird and shun
the frumious bandersnatch!

He took his vorpal sword in hand
Long time the manxome foe he sought
So rested he by the tum tum tree
and stood a while in thought

And as in uffish thought he stood
The Jabberwock with eyes of flame
came whiffling through the tulgey wood
and burbled as it came

One two! One two! And through and through
his vorpal blade went snicker snack
He left it dead and with its head
He went galuphing back.

And hast though slain the Jabberwock
Come to my arms my beamish boy
O frabjous day, Callooh callay!
he chortled in his joy.

Twas brillig and the slithy toves
did gyre and gimble in the wabe
All mimsy were the borogoves
and the momraths outgrabe.

Jabberwocky - Lewis Carol
I always used to say that poem over and over and over to keep my peddling cadence up while biking long distances.

Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard
To get her dog Rover a bone
But when she bent over, Rover drove her!
Cause Rover had a bone of his own.





There was an old lady who lived in a shoe
Who said "with my income, it's all I can do"
"It may sound sub-standard, but just down the block..."
"I know an old lady who lives in a Sock!"

And then there was a reader who was quite alive
His online pseudonym was hypersonic5
He read the poem about the old lady in the sock
And all he could think of was ?What the fock??
