Still Got the Smarts

Here I sit in my big easy chair Getting older by the minute, losing my hair Still got the smarts But those big old farts Are making it hard to concentrate I declare © Jack Ellison 2015

That easy chair has tasted fowl fragrances, She love to write a limerick about your gases and experiences. The funny and exciting stories she could tell! But she's knocked out with your fragrant farty smells! How do you like them apples Mr Limerick Sir Jack. The Master.

Get up outta that chair... comb your hair... and chase Lady Cathie around right back to her lair... Then even if you fart, you won't really care... because by the time you get there life will be fair...

Oh farting is such a sweet sorrow// “I’m sorry but that’s not my barrow”// Your seatmate’s nose in the air// You act dumb and even glare// But just then Jack gives another blow// With apologies to Shakespeare. PS. That's from my list of poems! Good morning Santa! hugs!
