In the Elevator

My stomach was feeling grumbly and gassy As I dressed for my meeting, looking classy My hair up in a bun, my black suit on in wool My breakfast still making me feel too full I ran into the crowded elevator, my portfolio in hand But then dropped it, and at my boss’s feet it did land I bent over quickly trying to pick up my portfolio paper And gasped, when I loudly let one loose in the elevator 8/1/21 Contest: When I Let One Loose In the Elevator Sponsor: Charles Messina

But, O what a gent he turned out to be, when he grinned sheepishly and said oops, pardon me... at least, I hope so. Congrats on your fun win, Tania. Terry

Reads like a good contender to me. Way to go. That was one of the worst situations for it to happen. Thanks for dropping by my blog. I appreciate you writing a tribute to Carolyn. Sara
