Burrrrrrrrp

Burps can be fun While watching a play The looks that you get Well, what can I say They're quite enough To make you giggle You try not to laugh You wiggle and jiggle The look of disgust Of those seated near They may not stay For the curtain I fear At times there's an odour That stays for a while Really quite foul It affects your smile That nasty old taste That stays in your mouth Makes you turn green Permeates the house It's really important To apologize For the harm that it causes To plants and one's eyes! ©Jack Ellison 2012

Oh man!! Another hilarious one!!! "They may not stay For the curtain I fear" Too funny! When I was in the first grade, my teacher was surprised that I could burp the ABC's. I had him laughing so hard! And yes, at times they can be unpleasant! Always, Laura
