Gone With the Wind

That old bedroom fan makes too much noise
But he sweats after nights with the boys
     I turn and pull the sheets up
     Good Lord, on beans they did sup
Thank goodness the fan his farts deploys

Coming home late, he now hits the couch
Spicy foods growl in his waistline pouch
     Old tabby hisses at him
     Rover’s expression’s quite grim
If our pets die from foul wind, I’ll grouch

“Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn,”
Said Rhett before he went on the lam
     My spouse won’t be hearing these
     The next time he cuts the cheese
I’ll clog him with a battering ram

Congrats on your win in the Jadazzle United contest. I am sorry Darren wasn't around to do the final judging with me - this made me giggle ... even though it wasn't quite what Darren had in mind for his romantic theme lol-) Hugs Jan xx

Funny, Well wrote. I would be no good at these at all and you rocked out three stanzas. Great job :)
