Do Elves Grow Up
An elf's coherent explanation11 total reviews
Comment from Artasylum
Well Frank... I understand the Elves logic and I also understand the Structured and stifled (a bit) poetry. So if I want to be an elf... I must stay on course towards what I can ring my bells for and leave (peacefully) the stifled behind. yours, diana

Yes or so it would seem. You and I seem to have massive egos which might not be the best thing but it exists absent any attempts to change it
Comment from Roxanna Andrews
Well this is certainly nonsense. I have to say it is well done as I don't know that I could come up with so much nonsense all at once. =} I do hope elves don't grow up, I think it might leave the world in chaos. But I am happy to hear elephants like butterflies and the conclusion has hamburgers in is as I really like them. I hope you do well in the contest.

Comment from Katya
This is pretty amusing. At times it threatens to degenerate from nonsense into mere randomness, but you keep the herd bunched up and moving along pretty well. There are some really striking phrases. "A smile is just and upside-down walrus, waiting for the paint to dry" is terrific, but my favorite is "oranges keep trying to date adjectives." I enjoyed reading this very much.

Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This speaks an interesting, funny but coherent explanation by an elf about his growing up, hamburgers should never doubt, as an elephant do not eat butterflies; well said, well done. Thank you for sharing this with us. Keep Writing Inspire Changing -- DR ALCREATOR

Comment from Sharon Haiste
I think this is a good story for the Funny Nonsense Poem writing prompt.
Your well written verse tells it like I image it would be told by an Elf.
Well done and good luck to you with the competition.

Comment from Beck Fenton
I love the way you created nonsense in this little poem. The mixture of thoughts and questions with the illogical responses are just what the prompt asked for. A smile is just an upside down walrus is true, though, so that may do some damage. Smile. Fun poem! Good luck in the contest!

Yes there were a few things that were related. Not sure if it was intended or just lazy. Walrus was intentional. They bring back somewhat sad memories for me. Icebcream cone and volcano, only time I made oldest grandchild cry was when I teased her about her ice cream cone. Thought she woul think it funny but she erupted. I do spend time coming up with unrelated things with a game the grandkids love during a car trip -,?Whay do you like better, a sneeze or thinking?? But these are related as you can?t think during a sneeze so coming up with truly unrelated things is difficult. Similar to the difficulty of creating truly random numbers if you ever have the need.

I love your walrus. It's gotten stuck on me so I may just steal it away with me. I hope that wipes off some of the sad for you.

Autobiography. . This elf never grew up but will certainly die someday. And I?m good at unrelated comments during conversation. I don?t think so but others do. Not sure that picture of a drag queen is not you, what do you think of elf picture- that was intended to be related.
Comment from Lloyd T. Okoko
The work fully exemplified the announced theme of the contest: "Funny Nonsense Poem" by the protagonist not directly answering the the questions put before it.
There is rather a rigmarole of incorrect answers of recurring dimensions that evoke laughter in tandem with the specified expected outcome of the entries.
The work earns its texture through the use of rhetorics oxymorons, alliterations and sarcasm.
Excellent work! Keep the flag flying!

An autobiography and things are more related than they might seem. But you don?t know me so most of it would be hard to figure out. I doubt anyone can.

Comment from Pamusart
This is a fun contest to review. Each entry has been entertaining. Your is the craziest, most disjointed and imaginative entry I have seen so far. The only ckear message is that nothing makes sense. An easy read that is well rhymed. Good luck in the contest. Thank you for sharing

Comment from Alexander Vasa
Hello, I'm enjoying these entries for the 'nonsense' competition. Best of luck with your entry. I wondered where you would go with this when I saw the title, and it is absolute nonsense, and then the last verse, pulls it all together, fun!!! Thanks for sharing your writing, Ana.
