THE FLUMMOX

When I met my first Flummox,
Well you could knock me off;
My ill fitting shoes and socks.

He stood on his hind legs looking around;
Marveling at the marvelous marvels,
Coming to a wondrous wonderful flying town.
knew it was flying stupendously splendourusly, 
By the wishing an washing of its well waxed wings.

Flummox snorted and belowed as never before,
It started to sneeze, He arose from the floor.
The more that he gasampled and sneezed,
He arose as a Flummox never before.         

Being terribly tenacious he arose;     
A whole inch of the floor.                   
To this veritable frightening time  I beseech,
That was the hauntest high it ever did reach.
Gasampled and bellowed,
Watched from my riotous rocking horse seat.
Each time that he sneezed,
he shot a foot  down the street.

Watching this I felt surprisingly unboxed,
In a unflappable flappable way you could say.
That fluffy furry Flummox has me Flummoxed,
To this vibrant virtual day.

Oh what fun is this! Your Flummox flummoxed you, eh? Well, from the descriptions you provide of this creature, I'd probably also find myself in that state. What can you say to a flummoxing Flummox, right? ;) I'm so delighted that my Jabberwocky challenge entry inspired you! Really enjoyed that, thanks.

Alan, I smiled as I read, and learned a new word! I like the use of the similar sounding words, which often don't work in such close proximity to one another. I was gasampled myself to think of you being knocked from your shoes and socks! :)
