Jabberwocky Comment by J.R.

I like the poem Jabberwocky because of the different words it uses throughout the poem. If I knew what some of the words meant, I would like it even more, I think. Like in the first stanza:
Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and the gimble in the wabe,
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe
It's perfect, but it would be even more perfect if I knew what brillig meant, and gyre, and gimble, and wabe, mimsy, borogoves, mome, and outgrabe. I think my picture resembles the because in the poem the father says to his son, "Beware the Jabberwocky, my son"it paints a picture in your mind saying that the Jabberwocky is very large and very scary.
