Pure Nonsense

A very strange poem indeed. It's a sort of anti-onomatopoeia, anti-school poetry poem which has proved surprisingly popular with teachers.

Of Sound Mind

Hear Here

I've heard a mouse squeak
and I've heard a lion roar.

I've heard a door creak
and I've heard my Granny snore.

But I've never heard a tree bark,
nor heard a willow weep.
