Chinese Water Torture...

Poem Artwork


 

My pipes get frozen,

Must be by the Buddha I am chosen,

To see if I can the water drops withstand,

Glad am I that I am deep into the Zen…

 

Must leave the water running,

A trickle is all if I expect to go out sunning,

You can see then that I have a small amount of cunning,

If I don’t leave the water on, frozen pipes I won't be rerunning…

 

So take it from me to keep them pipes from freezing,

And to make your life more or less pleasing,

Let some water through those tight pipes be squeezing,

Otherwise you will be paying through the nose & your plumber,

Well, he will be the one you will be appeasing…J

You can see then that I have a small amount of cunning,

I've realized this since childhood, brother - but even a small amount - is good. Keep Drippin, til Spring gets there.
