This is a repost from back in September, we all had a great laugh from it! I am not much of one to write something this funny, and I had much help from someone.    So I hope you all find yourself cracking up! This is what I meant by laughter, we used to have words of war that really made everyone laugh!


LongJohn and two buddies, drinking beer,
Were talking so loud I could easily hear
About all the fanciful stories they told
And how they complained about their getting old.

The first guy said, "Well, the best wish for me
Would be able to take a good, healthy pee.
But a small, little dribble is all I can get
Which leaves my pajamas completely wet!

Friend Joe said, "When I wake, I feel quite foul.
I can't get a movement out of my bowel!
I've tried laxatives and ointments...instead,
I just go on back, disappointed, to bed."

LongJohn said, "Poor fellas! I need no such tricks.
I can pee and my bowel moves each morning at six."
"So what would you wish for...," said Joe "with such heaven?"
"I wish," said LongJohn, "I could wake before seven!"

And the other will save your soul.

Oh how funny is this
What you're not all going through to have bliss
I thank you WhtDove for the smile you send
For Long John I know a fix
Just don't go to bed before the clock and bowel strikes six

 The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.
