Jan Allison Poet Couplet

Notes About The Poem

Andrea Dietrich Has Finally Come Out of the Closet

She went into the closet one day
But what a high price she did pay
 
Her hubby he wanted a cuddle
But this act soon burst their bubble
 
The door of the closet shut fast
His ardour was a thing of the past
 
Their claustrophobia was getting worse
So Andrea checked in her old purse
 
She found an old credit card
Joe picked the lock, which was hard
 
After 20 minutes they were free
The relief on their face plain to see
 
Take heed - next time you are after a ‘screw’
Make sure the door doesn’t close on you!

Daver Austin February 21, 2015 at 10:38 AM Good one on Andrea. I wonder if a little claustraphobia would dent Andrea's spirit. Love, daver Jan Allison February 21, 2015 at 11:37 AM I am just pleased they got out ok and Andrea allowed me to post this little 'tribute' poem:-) Hugs jan xx

Ilene Bauer February 20, 2015 at 7:14 PM very funny, jan, although i would have been freaking out had that happened to me. it sounds like (from your poem) that andrea handled it pretty well. Jan Allison February 20, 2015 at 7:23 PM You must read the blog Ilene - I am just grateful Andrea allowed me permission to post this:-) Hugs Jan xxx

Andrea Dietrich February 20, 2015 at 7:03 PM Awesome, jan. I love the picture you used. I felt like that woman. But it looks like she is just locked out of her house. That is a much better thing to be than locked inside a bloody closet. hahaha. I googled if anyone had ever died from being accidentally locked in a closet and was amazed not to find anything. I think it was a pretty rare thing that happened to us!! Hope you get many more reads! Jan Allison February 20, 2015 at 7:06 PM Hi Andrea - I tried to find pictures of people locked in a closet but there was nothing really suitable so went for this lol - thanks so much for being such a good sport and letting me post my poem:-) least it gave me something to smile about:-) Hugs Jan xx

Eileen Manassian February 20, 2015 at 1:07 PM Yes...I read the blog....Man...if I were stuck in the closet...with hubby in a mood for romance....I'd say...BABY BABY.....Let's have a go and worry about getting out....after a few minutes? Hours? ;) HEE HEE! I AM claustrophobic, so that probably ISN'T going to be my reaction. I'd be like Andrea...Who was she hankering for in there? Tom Cruise or those yummy burgers? Good one, Jan! You are a sweetie pie! HUGS Eileen Manassian February 20, 2015 at 1:41 PM Goodness gracious, woman! We NEED it! Wish I had me a funny bone instead of all the sap I write. ;) More power to you! I'm a FAN! Jan Allison February 20, 2015 at 1:39 PM You know me Eileen can't resist an injection of humour into the site lol:-) Eileen Manassian February 20, 2015 at 1:18 PM You are the best. Good idea to do that. Always better to be safe than sorry....I loved the way you used the word...Screw!! ;) You...smart sassy one! Jan Allison February 20, 2015 at 1:14 PM Thanks for the lovely comment Eileen. I did mail it to Andrea to seek her permission -I was delighted she agreed to it - not everyone would appreciate my humour at their expense! :-) Hugs Jan xxx
