Jan Allison Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Blast Off

Here lie the bones of Ethel Carter
Scatolologist and expert farter
Her life she said had been a blast …
‘Twas on the John that Ethel passed!

Beryl Edmonds May 5, 2022 at 8:23 PM Perhaps the reason for Ethel having passed, was that the dear old soul was gassed. What a blast… Belle x

Gershon Wolf May 5, 2022 at 3:06 PM As she lived, so did she die! lol. Her life's not worth even a fart-hing anymore. lol. Good one, Jan.

Alexis Y. May 5, 2022 at 3:00 PM Wow! Jan, This is a good one for the contest theme. You chose the perfect picture as well. Best wishes in the contest. Have a great evening:-)Alexis

L Milton Hankins May 5, 2022 at 2:11 PM Oh, Jan, this is absolutely perfect! The rhyme and rhythm are simply great. I don't see how anyone could top this!!! I loved it. L Milton Hankins May 6, 2022 at 11:09 AM Obviously that "expert poet" has not read many of the classical poets, particularly in the limerick genre. We all need a good s**t now and then, agreed! Jan Allison May 5, 2022 at 2:49 PM I'm not known as 'queen of poop for nothing lol... i got told by one poet that 'scatology was NOT a subject for poets to write about - well I pooh-pooed that comment lol:-) hugs Jan xx Jan Allison May 5, 2022 at 2:17 PM I wrote it in between supervising exams today lol:-) thanks for the lovely comment:-) xx
