NEED help finding a poem for school

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!

Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun

The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:

Long time the manxome foe he sought—

So rested he by the Tumtum tree,

And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,

The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,

Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,

And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through

The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!

He left it dead, and with its head

He went galumphing back.

"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?

Come to my arms, my beamish boy!

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"

He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

And the mome raths outgrabe.
 
My Love is Like A Red, Inflatable Dart Board

I tried and tried to make it work

To write one just like Rabbie

The more I tried the worse it got

Until I got quite crabbie.

I was inspired it went like this, It really started fine…

Wee iridescent, sunlit petal

In translucent, shimmering red

Glistening hues of many colours

That was enough! I went to bed.

I tried again another day. It started off much better…

Wee, vacillating, bouncing blossoms

Near vibrant, windswept and thorny

Your beauty never fails you

My God! …It’s getting corny.

Tae try again might be a virtue. It didn’t get much worse…

Wee, Luminous, flowery petal

Idyllic repose, through wind and rain

In shimmering, reflective metal

I give up! But lo' yea still the same.
