WOW, thanks for the fave, Andrea! Didn't know this one would have that effect. I found it isn't all that easy making up new adjectives without starting to repeat yourself with -ious words.

Loved this John. Being an animal lover it gave me a grin. Great stuff. In my previous poem the ass in the bathtub was a real live donkey. God Bless, JB

Used to make us kid's laugh in church when the minister would read the 10 commandments in King James translation: "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's ass". COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING! Oh my, I might not make it into heaven thanks to that transgression!

Hi Judy, glad you clarified, because they censored your "ass" (so to speak) it showed up as "***". But that was my guess, I couldn't think of any other 3-letter words that would get censored, haha! Glad you got a chuckle out of this silly write ~ John
