L Milton Hankins Poet Epitaph

Unfortunate Demise

Here lies Hector Amos McSpiel
Slipped on a tossed banana peel
It really was not Hector’s fault
He came down hard upon his heel
We buried him here in a sturdy vault

Valsa George April 9, 2022 at 12:29 AM This is indeed so funny ! But it happens .... I remember having slipped on a banana peel and was badly injured ! Fortunately I escaped being placed in a vault ! :) L Milton Hankins April 9, 2022 at 8:08 AM Well, we're certainly happy that didn't happen! I think I have, too, but it was only a tailbone injury!
