Terry Flood Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

A true story of marital er..... bliss

-------------------------------------------------

 

 

Flush

My lady wife does strange things with the lavatory brush
She stands it in the loo and then she activates the flush
But she’s my girl and not someone that I would want to chasten
Except she leaves the brush there like it’s Guardian of the Basin

I know she pours in loads of bleach in which the brush can soak
I don’t know why she does this for alas I'm just a bloke
So when I walk into the loo that brush is standing proud
Protruding from the lavvy pan as I proclaim out loud…

My darling, I’m so happy that you keep our home hygienic
But that there plastic poker in our loo is hardly scenic
So I don’t have a Labrador but what if I were blind…
You’d find me running out of here while clutching my behind

Paula Goldsmith February 27, 2025 at 10:58 AM I enjoyed reading your fun/creative "Flush" write. Great Picture... Years ago I cleaned with bleach until I was having breathing problems. I found out bleach is bad on ones health. Have a wonderful/blessed day writing away.................. Terry Flood February 27, 2025 at 2:55 PM Oh yes… the bleach… don’t mention the bleach. Im still searching for my retinas! Glad you enjoyed, Paula. Terry

Tom Cunningham February 26, 2025 at 11:17 PM Warning always make sure the light is on before sitting on the throne, you don't want any nasty surprises, ouch. Lol. Tom Terry Flood February 27, 2025 at 2:53 PM Been some close calls, Tom. But my radar is finely tuned nowadays. Terry

Oliver Mckeithan February 26, 2025 at 5:54 PM LOL. It is good you arent blind. The pain would be excruciating. Terry Flood February 27, 2025 at 2:52 PM You sure got that right, Oliver. Thanks for stopping by. Terry

David Fisher February 26, 2025 at 5:37 PM Ouch! That wouldn't sit well with anyone. Funny story, and if any is non-fiction, that would be a new one for me; but why not clean it in there after all! At first I kiddingly though the title was about cards, and at least you mentioned poker later on, lol. Terry Flood February 27, 2025 at 2:50 PM Oh David…. If only any of it WAS fiction. Nope! Apart from humour for effect, these WC flagpoles are a regular occurrence in our house… FACT!

Jan Allison February 26, 2025 at 3:45 PM ha ha ha love it - that handle looks pretty brutal lol - think you would need anusol and not the andrex poopy I mean puppy lol:-) hugs Jan xx Terry Flood February 27, 2025 at 2:47 PM If there’s one time when your body clock doesn’t need messing with, it’s when you’re gasping for the loo and you rush in, turn on the light…. And there’s a bloody stalagmite in the lavvy. Annie could be the next Tracey Emin with this daily work of art ;-)
