My Contst Pom

a firkin of port and a glass
through my lips a last drop will pass
my thirst I now blunt
as thoughts it will stunt
in my john my food will amass

Thanks Jan, it looked very different before I removed all the Es. It's nice to hear such a great comment from the Mistress of Limerick. I haven't written one for a very long time.
