Rhyme? and reason?

A lively gathering of verse and illustration invites listeners into a world where nonsense and wonder dance together. The collection weaves playful rhymes, quirky riddles, and fanciful sketches that capture the bright curiosity of childhood and the surreal logic of a dream‑like mind. It feels like opening a dusty attic of imagination, where each page hums with the echo of a whispered adventure.

In the opening tale, a weary traveler returns home late on a winter night, only to meet a trembling ghost on his landing. Their dialogue spins a charmingly absurd etiquette of hauntings, with spectral guests filing into houses like tenants and sharing the “Five Good Rules” of phantom conduct. The exchange is both witty and gently eerie, setting a tone that balances humor with a touch of the uncanny.

Listeners will find a medley of poetic games—riddles, parody, and tender reflections—that celebrate the joy of language itself. The short, vivid episodes tease the imagination, promising a whimsical journey that feels as fresh as a summer sea breeze.
