Jan Allison Poet Rhyme

The Real Gods of Wind

The real gods of wind - 
Oh these have to be male
They can produce wind at will
And with force they exhale
Often ready with a belch or a fart
They have this bodily function down to a fine art

N/a in Contest: The God of Winds

submitted to Applicable Not Applicable Contests Poetry Contest
sponsored by Richard Lamoureux


Research for the poem is from real life experience - inspired by my father and the other men in my life but I especially need to give credit to a student I worked with I will only refer to him as 'beanz boy' !!!
(You did say on the rules to have fun… so I did!)

Poets notes All the winning poems were serious ... and I don't think the sponsor appreciate my wit I  but  from the comments I received at least I made folk smile

Lindsay Laurie January 10, 2015 at 6:43 PM G'day Jan... Is this why men and women form their own groups at a bar-be-cue Jan? Great poem to brighten my day... oops! sorry.

Tim Ryerson December 29, 2014 at 12:35 PM Yes, she said have fun and you sure did my friend! HILARIOUS...Reminds me of my late father-in-law who would often tell the grandkids 'Pull my finger' and then he would cut loose. I also have a 'Farting Santa' which I put on display at work every Christmas...Pinch his finger, he farts (with quite a repertoire I might add) and says things like: 'That's all YOU'RE gettin' for Christmas' and 'Up the chimney we GOOO!...The customers always get a kick out of it. Good stuff! - Tim Jan Allison December 29, 2014 at 12:39 PM I just hope Shadow has a good sense of humour lol:-) thanks for the lovely comment Tim that had me giggling :-) Hugs Jan xxx

Maurice Yvonne December 17, 2014 at 5:21 PM What a gorgeous modern Tanka dealing with the nature of the winds passed on from generation to generation of males. So it is passed on from father to son. This is deep with a thundering message. One easily gets your drift. I'm winded just thinking about it. It reads like a gentle breeze that slowly fills the nasal passages with its unforgettable scent. This really opens a window...or at least should...please! Jan Allison December 17, 2014 at 6:06 PM LOL Maurice - seriously we used to have to open the windows when beanz boy wafted in through the door - am convinced he was fed on beans curry and sprouts every weekend lol:-) Hugs jan xxx
