Humpty Dumpty:The Inquest

The shocking truth behind Humptys demise.

After numerous tests and to manies disdain
it was found that Humpty had taken cocaine,
which led to his seizure and subsequent fall
from his favourite perch high up on the wall.
So the coroner declared, with a sigh, a sad breath,
that Humptys demise was "Eggcidental Death"
NOW.........
People may laugh and they may even joke,
but with so many starving, what a waste of a yolk!!!!

Very clever and witty! I'm a fan of your rhyme!

[Gee]

Thank you. Many are put off by rhyme because it can be very restrictive. Me, being a child at heart, love it...

[Drama Child]

oh yes, same here. I find when it's forced it can throw it off but you Sir, oh it just flows.. Rhyme is a passion and I enjoy others who do the same.

This poem was hilarious! I have a soft spot for puns. ("Eggcidental Death", and instant classic!) Every once in a while it's nice to be reminded that poetry is an art form and like any art form, there's room in it for laughter.

[Gee]

Thank you kindly

I read this to my teenagers and they said the last line should read " What a waste of coke" ha ha ha

[Gee]

Lol,that fits nicely as well. My 15 year old has only ever let me read her 1 poem, "The Giant Stink" All I got was," like that dad but you're a nerd !!!"
