Notes About The Poem

Dead Drunk

I heard of a lady named Carol,
Whose hubby’s interred in a barrel,
He died due to drinking,
So it was her thinking,
He’d adore his final apparel!

Good one Jan…… Did pallbearers roll him into chapel - Being encased in awkward apparel - Did mourners raise a glass - In honour of his pass - Was his send off song "Roll out the barrel”?…… Belle :-) xx

Cor, she was scraping the bottom of the barrel there. Fun write, Jan, but I’ll never again ask a publican for something with a little more ‘body’. :-( Terry

Woooh ohhh uh oh! So she dressed him in a barrel apparel eh. Reminds me of my dad in law who says he would bury mom in law with eggplants and peas because she likes them too much and cooks them every other day. Thanks for the giggle, we need it in these damning times. Kudos!!
