            Natural gas

Drowned his lobster in butter source.
Then stuffed it in his mouth of course.
He licked his fingers one by one
And said it's late that he must run.

Into the night he gaily fled
Hailed a cab and off to bed.
Without the aid of counting sheep
He yawned, undressed and fell asleep

But one does not down butter source,
And sleep as truly dead of course.
They must contend with natural gas
And stirring dreams that come to pass.

And this was true of him of course
He dreamt he stew in butter source.
And struggled in this greasy mass.
Till blasted out by natural gas.

I quote no moral, but it"s said,
Don't eat before you go to bed.

This is a repost

No moral seen just true to fact.  Loved it much and you say it so acceptable.

Oh Sy,

You make me laugh so very hard, but happy to say I don't eat and then go to bed so there's no need to fear the blast.

Love, Cerenity

SEYMOUR~
Such a release of emotion ! !
With petrol prices soaring -
is there an alternative on the horizon ????

Is that what they used to call pooter-scooting?

You are a funny man !
Thanks for the smiles !
