Notes About The Poem

A Bunch of Muppets

Here’s a tale about Kermit the frog When blind drunk he slipped off a wet log Miss Piggy was forlorn Her dear ‘Kermie’ was ‘gorn’ Now he’s buried deep in a peat bog The Swedish chef landed up in jail In bad trouble no one would pay bail He’d got a big knife And butchered his wife No parole until he's old and frail! Inspired by the poem by Lin Lane - do join in the fun!! https://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/muppets_in_the_soup___join_in_892703 04~15~17

Morning Jan. Wow. A Limerick Suite if you will. How grand is that. Very. I adore Miss Piggy. She cracks me up. Wonderful work throughout. Thank you for sharing. Writing should always be about the fun.

So Kermit was Irish after all! I had him over for dinner, but he had pickled pigs feet and chittlings, but refused the spuds. Could've fooled me. Shalom--go on have fun today. Tomorrow I will Pray (for us, not Kermit 'cos frogs end up in bogs, and Heaven keeps cats & dogs).
