    Don't try to read it with a rythm

    Froggity frog, Jumpity jump,
    forth, forth, you fly,

    onward to the sparkled, speckled, spackled sky

    Try triumphs toadstools.
    The kitty cats croon,
    racing across the sea.

    Hush, Hush, the moon's melody's coming.
    Moves me.

    Giants grasp, let Lenor leave,
    let Lenor live

    Warm me sunshine,
    the dew drops christen the star beams

    random, yes, but a good exercise in cunning sound

    The first three lines are excellent and do bend to the ear easily when read with the right thrust. Reminds me a bit of Hopkins's 'sprung rhythm' pieces. You should look him up- one of my favs!
