There was a smart man from Lawn Over whom, the ladies would fawn But his wife confessed She was not impressed And quietly stifled a yawn
You she, she had spent three years Perfecting her claps and her cheers For his rote learned tricks That impressed all the chicks But bored her simply to tears
Still, she had to pay him his due Because from him it was through That she lived like a dame And his fortune and fame Came from tricking them all, old and new
The women would come from miles To be flattered by his comments and smiles And if they wanted to pay Who was she to say She just gathered the coins into piles
To them she was just the maid Dressed rather plainly and staid But she knew the score He loved her more Of losing him, she wasn't afraid
You see, our young man from Lawn Was simply his cunning wife's pawn When he'd made enough money She'd gather his 'honey' And one day she'd simply be 'gorn'
Reassurance
Knowing you are there
Behind me
Watching me
A guiding light
Through life’s mists
I’ll forge ahead
And if I stumble
I know you’re there
Willing me to go on

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “bodily function.” Decide on one or write about a whole bunch of bodily functions. Bonus inspiration: here’s a website. Enjoy!
An Ode to all things Lavatorial
Our body does the strangest things
Sometimes it sleeps, sometimes it sings
By singing, I mean parping
Or slightly ruder, farting
It’s one of the things we have to do
Like eating and then going for a poo
And all the things that you drink
Wee wee time, another toilet link!
It’s not all lavatorial though
We have to sneeze and burp, you know
But there are times a burp can lead
You to the loo again indeed
Because you may feel the urge
The contents of your stomach to purge
And vomiting can come hand in hand
With that other function needing the pan
For if you’ve ever suffered D and V
You’ll be pooping constantly!
