Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Heavenly Farter

When Father Ted farted in church
The Bishop (who looked just like lurch)
Said ‘say six hail Mary’s
then keep off the dairies’
I know cos I’ve done my research!

Just before you stand in the pulpit
Do digest a small charcoal biscuit
Then clench your butt cheeks
So no foul wind leaks
Be mindful in church where you sit!

If there’s flatulence neath your attire
Just ensure you’re stood next to the choir
As it really annoys
All the little choir boys
To giggle is all they desire!

Duke Beaufort October 9, 2024 at 12:33 PM Jan, I went looking for something you wrote back in time. The title is too much really. You've supplied a lot of ideas and makes me think of some of the reasons to avoid crowds of people. This is a very funny subject and just makes me laugh. Smiles!
