The Land of No Fun

Fantasy Poem for Writing Contest

THE LAND OF NO FUN

No fun in Nofunlandia
At least not up on top

The King's the only happy one
He thinks all fun's at stop

No birthday bash, no candles bright
No happy children play

No mirthful dragons fly about
Enjoying fine Spring days

The witches mope, the ogres sulk
With teardrops in their eyes

The King is right, no fun to find
Between the land and sky

But look a little deeper down
Things aren't what they seem

If you know how to go below
There's quite a different scene

Down where the dwarfs and trolls have dug
Their mines and tunnels deep

For folk of Nofunlandia
Is where the fun they keep

Need some candles and a cake
Find it just below

You can dance and sing and play
If you know where to go

So let that sad sack King endure
The No Fun he enjoys

While you descend the secret stairs
To fun and games and toys

Just make sure when you're on top
You sulk around and mope

Then make your way beneath the ground
To find the Party Folk
