A Long Hairline Crack

A long hairline crack down the side
Can't be seen from entrance at door
It leaks just a small drip not tide
But tends to puddle on the floor

Will try to patch by using caulk
Let it dry then see if it works
With this repair should have good block
Maybe not even watermarks

All that work you have guessed, it leaks
Still..maybe have to replace it
Can't just throw this away..antiques
Know what I can do get a kit

In the yard it will get to sit
During its final days it will
Float jasmine scent to our credit
The end for commode that's unreal

It matters not to where nature grows, because she will be in her splendour in green and colourful throws >> James

Good use you put it to, Sara. a fun read . About my limericks. I just use "names" the names do not refer to an actual person. So all my limerics, though they use my friends' names, are just to make jokes about anybody with that name and not one person in particular! LUv, Andrea

Sorry for that! Did you try any time a clear strong glue? Thank you for your comments, Sara! I for sure blew all yoke an white of the eggs off and kept sem packed. I believe best would be to fill the empty eggs with gypsum so that the can' break. ...Gert

You made this so funny. I hope it was a pink toilet. We have one in the powder room that we are very fond of. I use nail polish to hide the flaws. It's so unusual, we'd never remodel it, but now I am afraid it will crack. Your imagination is unrivaled. Thanks
