Edward Lear

There was an old person from Ware, Who rode on the back of a bear: When they asked,-"Does it trot?"- He said "Certainly not! He's a Moppsikon Floppsikon bear."

There was an Old Man with a beard, Who said, "It is just as I feared!- Two Owls and a Hen, Four Larks and a Wren, Have all built their nests in my beard!"
