This is the Queen of Nonsense Land, <br />She wears her bonnet on her hand; <br />She carpets her ceilings and frescos her floors, <br />She eats on her windows and sleeps on her doors. <br />Oh, ho! Oh, ho! to think there could be <br />A lady so silly-down-dilly as she! <br /> <br />She goes for a walk on an ocean wave, <br />She fishes for cats in a coral cave; <br />She drinks from an empty glass of milk, <br />And lines her potato trees with silk. <br />I'm sure that fornever and never was seen <br />So foolish a thing as the Nonsense Queen! <br /> <br />She ordered a wig for a blue bottle fly, <br />And she wrote a note to a pumpkin pie; <br />She makes all the oysters wear emerald rings, <br />And does dozens of other nonsensible things. <br />Oh! the scatterbrained, shatterbrained lady so grand, <br />Her Royal Skyhighness of Nonsense Land!<br /><br />Carolyn Wells<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-great-lady-2/
