Contests : Wergle Flomp Free Poetry Contest : Past Winners : 2003 : Lenny Lianne
THE WORST LAMB
I'll begin by saying April stinks.
Belladonna, lilacs
and hyacinths.
All-ee, all-ee, in free:
The pub's a-closin'.
Sturm und drang, ach, verboten.
Rama lama Kama Sutra.
My way, my way, Frank Sinatra.
Who cares if Mr. Kurtz he dead?
Dharma, dharma,
Dharma and Greg.
Sent as a joke to poetry.com,
this poem received an honorable mention in the 2003
Wergle Flomp parody poetry contest sponsored by Winning Writers.
