Jan Allison Poet Rhyme

Just Because I Said 'I Do'

Just because I said 'I do'
Doesn't mean I need to stand when I want to use the loo

If its brown flush it down, so the experts say
But if you stand to use the loo please leave the seat where it once did lay

When in a rush to use the privy
I feel like a complete divvy

When my posterior hits the porcelain
Where once a wooden seat had lain

So men when you stand up to pee
Think of others – especially me

Leave the seat where it once sat
And make sure you leave the beggar flat!

Achieved 7th place in contest run by SKAT

Daniel Turner January 19, 2016 at 7:49 PM All it took was your suggestion that I was stealing, now all of a sudden everybody thinks my work is stolen. I printed out your comments on my printer and now I'm going to sue you for libel. You have destroyed my integrity and in doing so I can no longer supplement my income. All of a sudden no one wants to read my poems. You have wrecked my livelihood as I am disabled and can not work.

Thomas Martin April 30, 2015 at 10:18 PM This early post shows your budding talent very well, Well done, Jan. Jan Allison May 1, 2015 at 2:21 AM Gosh Thomas this was one of my very first poems posted only 2 days after I joined the site - amazing to see how I have progressed in just 14 months. Writing has changed my life totally - soup is my safe haven - i do not know how I would have coped with all the trauma and stress in my life if I hadn't penned my first poem after my hubby's cancer surgery. What an amazing journey I have been on:-) Hugs jan xx
