Pat's Polecat

Pat's
polecat
ate Jack's Brats**
got way too fat
So when that cat shat
on Papa's brand-new hat
he was punished tit-for-tat
Now forced to dine solely on rat
Pat's polecat said grace for meals, then spat

I love this Gershon, I actually enjoyed a bratwurst sandwich today, it wasn't at Jack's though, it was a 7-11 convenience store $2.99 special (lol) none-the less, it was as tasty as this little gem. Congratulations on your 1st place win. ~CM

Great job with this one Gershon! I don't see how it couldn't place! A lot of things rhyme with Pat. That's why, being hard of hearing, I'm constantly looking around, thinking someone is calling my name. On the other hand senility may be creeping up on me.......oh well anyway, well done my friend!.......Pat...(what?)...80)

Hey Pat,... Pat,... Pat! … PAT!! Have I got your attention now?! Well, tee-hee, I've forgotten what I wanted to tell you... Another senior moment, eh? … Oh yeah, I enjoyed your comment, immensely, and thanks for the tip of the hat! Cheers, Gershon
