Poor Claire

Poor Claire with arthritis she’d battle, Her bones would shake like a rattle, She was always tight-lipped, But her dress she finally zipped, Relieved she would go on and prattle. To Ireland, Claire went on a hop And promptly was caught by a cop Her face was so red For in drink she was bred Till they fed her with milk and a sop.

Alas, Claire's plight is a woeful one. Perchance the law enforcement officer has at last rescued her from her own demons. Well crafted, Victor

Poor Claire, indeed! May be the cop finally saved her from herself.

Poor Claire. She had some deep problems. She probably was hitting the bottle to help with the pain. Sad. The bad kind of arthritis runs in my biological family and I think maybe some of my ancestors handled the pain by drinking, but then again they may have just liked the drink. Thanks for sharing the humor of the day. Sara
