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?
