I’m rebuilding my house, with insurance money,
after fire burned it down.
Met a man doing the same, with his money,
after flood covered the ground.
We are both vacationing in Bermuda,
in an expensive hotel here.
Enjoying the surf and the sun,
and just not giving a care.
But, I could not help but wonder,
So, I asked my new friend, Bud,
How in the world,
did you ever start a flood?

Very funny.  And I hope the sheriff isn't waiting for you when you get home.  Joyce

Trillium, I'll let you know.
Joyce, I hope the sheriff can see the humor in it.

I also enjoyed your delightfully devious poem! Your punchline also is very well placed.
Tahnks for the entertaining read, Melton.
