The Tale of Custard the Dragon  by Ogden Nash

Custard accepted his cowardice and the others' bravery by keeping quiet, while the others noisily boasted of their bravery, and requested for a safe and nice cage.

Explanation:

  • The Tale of Custard the Dragon   is the most famous non-sense poem by Ogden Nash.
  • The poem is in the form of a ballad and can be read as  children's poem with an ironic undertone.
  • The poem is about a little girl called Belinda who lives in a white house with her various pets like a black kitten named Ink, a grey mouse called Blink, a yellow dog- Mustard and an assumedly  cowardly dragon Custard.
  • The poem ironically  states that all of the animals are very brave except the dragon.
  • Their bravery is compared to animals like bear, tiger or lion but the dragon is the only one which is timid.
  • Custard accepts his cowardice by always demanding a safe place for himself.  
  • This acceptance is asserted through the line," But Custard cried for a nice safe cage. "
  • This line is used as a refrain in the poem. It is ironic though as it is only Custard who confronts the pirate and kills it while Belinda and all her other pets flee from the place.
