My Noisy Toilet

Just a thin wall dividing my headboard from the john, every night it played me a continuos running water song, so got up and closed the valve, my problem now temporarily solved, posting a note on the lid, "don't resuscitate until dawn!"

Now this is "darn near spit a mouthful of morning coffee" funny! True story. I have now moved you to my "don't read with a mouthful of coffee" list of poets. Small list I might add. Not much more annoying that a singing toilet with a throat full of...well, never mind. ;-) Good morning! Hope recovery is going well ~j

Classic sit-com funny distilled in limerick poem, Cheryl. Very well done I might add. You have that comedic flair, and impeccable timing meter for poetry. Your punch lines are never delivered as a dud. Cool poem. Much love to you from the RW (Romantic Warrior.)
