Jan Allison Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

Not Currying Favour

When dining with Angie and Peter
I let out a terrible fetor
Leaping up in a hurry
I blamed yesterday’s curry
Room fragrance soon made the air sweeter!

Jan Allison October 18, 2018 at 8:29 AM thanks Art, no I deliberately used currying favour which, according to google means "to ingratiate oneself with someone through obsequious behaviour." :-) I know a few folks like that lol:-) hugs Jan xx
