Mabbergabbery

Once 'twas a slabbery eve,

With muppies memming in the vray;

But with a grap of the mimsy's freeve, 

All mum tod the farrowy wray. 

The mimsy murled a tale so rabber

Her children pripped their jummies tight. 

For mimsy spoke of the mabbergabber,

Who stole jummies away at night. 

"But fear not the mabbergabber, my loves,

With its rurling eyes and mipping teeth.

Fear not the grutterer or the scalding froves 

Of the hertrum or the mickled yeeth."

"Oh mimsy but we are so ruckled with 

Fears about the mabbergabber's murrack. 

How can we sleep with morrid slith

Creeting through our reets and back?" 

"My sweet mumblebeats, I will always be

Near to troddle the door and lig the mert.

Sleep well my yammerloves and cree 

For you, tueling yoves, will never be hurt."
