Recipient: knitmeapony
Prompt: Characters appreciating (or attempting to appreciate) poetry of any kind
Word count: 100, not counting the quotes from the poem (yes, that’s kid of cheating, but oh well…)
Rating: G

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Hermione, what is this?"

"It’s a poem, Ron."

"It’s not even in English!"

Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

"I think I’ve heard Luna talking about those things."

"They aren’t real."

"My point exactly. Muggles call this culture?"

"I’ll have you know that Lewis Carroll is a highly respected-"

"I can’t imagine why..."

"Well, since you were too impatient to understand Shakespeare-"

"That coot? He’s impossible!"

"Oh, I give up!"

"Good," Ron muttered as Hermione stalked away. Why she thought he needed to appreciate poetry of all things…

One, two! One, two! And through and through ( ... )
