Let One Loose

I accidentally let one loose
Sipping the communion juice 

The priest looked down
With a disapproving frown

Some parishioners gasped
Mothers, their babies clasped
The sexton's voice rasped:

Via the air displaced
We are all disgraced
The Lord's name debased ...
 
That would've been the end
But then I did it again ...
A little louder this time  
  ~ To highlight the rhyme

Well, I guess that this is a subject dear to our hearts, or at least to our gastro-intestinal tract. Thanks for checking this one out, Jan! Best wishes, Gershon
