The Walrus and The Carpenter poem

Love the poem, but, yes, another reader voice would have been preferred by this listener. A smooth, subtly sinister voice would better reflect the dark underbelly of this poem.

Argh, I say

I love the poem, but this reading of it is abysmal. "Voice artist"? He marches through it as if he understands neither the poem nor the way people talk.

It 's awesome

The Walrus and the Carpenter is a nonsense poem that my sister and I like very much.

The Walrus and the Carpenter

The best of this poem is the verse that begins "The time has come to speak of many things". I've used that verse a number of times in my life and there is nothing better for getting the attention of your listeners. They start listening in a good mood.

I am da Walrus

Strange poem, but it made me laugh. The word, conveniently, was supposed to have been drawn out to more syllables.

The Walrus and the Carpenter

I find Lewis's nonsense poems second only to those of Ogden Nash. I'm going to memorize this one so I can quote it at those low party moments when no one has anything (of worth) to say. I already do a dramatic rendition of Jabberwocky. (Everyone should memorize at least one heroic poem: "Horatio at the Bridge" is much too long. Still, not all is nonsense in this rather dark poem, is it?
