A natural event put to poetry...Phew

Spell bound and as dumb as any cluck.

Can't seem to right myself, bent over

Like a duck who only quacks.

 

Shiver my timbers, I'm loose as a goose.

Don't get in my way or the smell will make you pay.

Relief at last, it seems I've found a home.

 

I guess I'm all flushed out, wipe and be gone.

Thank God for rest rooms with toilets,

They saved my day and no one had to pay.

Oh man, George, do I know this feeling...I did & still do alot of over the road driving and those restrooms were sometimes a place that could be called heaven. Then again the woods on the sides of roads wasn't a bad place either, though you take the chance of squatting in poison ivy...:) -e-
