Is There a Throne In Heaven

I've often wondered when I die,
Can I still have rhubarb pie?
But then I worry what would I do,
If by chance I have to pooh?
Perhaps I'll just sip a drink,
Then again, it makes me stink.
I know they'll save a place for me,
Because god knows I'll have to pee!
Sure hope I don't have to rush,
Cause I'm not sure where the pipes flush.
If it's down, does it pour without a trace?
If it's up, will it splatter in my face?
Let me pray we don't have to eat,
So on Heavens Throne I won't need a seat!

I love rhubarb pie, I like to think it's up there waiting for both of us, Virginia.

First come, first served. We must agree to save the other a piece. Lol

This was like being a kid again writing nonsense. Thanks for reading my poem.

Thankyou Charles. It's kind of funny how some things just come to mind when we see or hear a word or picture. I am trying to reach out beyond my normal and really got daring here. But even I laughed at the thought. I was wondering whatever happened to the contest? I don' t see it anywhere.

PS: My dad always asked me "Do you think the rain will hurt the rhubarb" The answer to that is..."Not if they put it in cans" Funny, I just asked my siblings if they remembered that...they all did, all 6 of them :)
