Bimble Bumble Bum Bum
A camel with a purple hump
Came over to show me his rump
He aah-ed and he ooh-ed
It hurt when he pooed
It seems that his bum had gone numb
I said, “Well what can I do?
Your bum’s in the dumps, ’tis true
Never have I seen
A camel so green
Or as purpley humped, as you!”
The camel, he huffed and he signed
Said, “Oh Doctor, never mind
I thought you’d prescribe
For me to imbibe
A bug or a drug or some kind”
I poked at his hump and I thought
He shouldn’t be left so distraught
I gave him some pills
To give his bum chills
And then numb or bummed he was not!
Yay! 😛

Day 22!! Today’s prompt was to write a poem for children, in the style of Edward Lear. And how can I be nonsensical without green camels with purple humps?
Cheers!
