Got to Contemplating
While contemplating my present state
And rather attribute it’ all to fate
I figured in blooming, perhaps I was late
That for all my sincerity
It seems a bit queer
In extending a hand
Could lose you a fan
I gave some more thought
Then smoked a little pot (just teasing)
Now I’d set out to pray
Figuring it the best way
But all attempts you see,
Had been abruptly assailed-
Thoughts became scattered
Like moths in the night
I thought of my son
Probably caused him duress
My cheeky comments
To those blogs he’s been mounting
True true, it’s merely a guess
But just like a freight train
It picked up no less
Then Jennifer Anniston
And the fuss about her nose
Flooded my mind
Like a garden hose
Angelina Jolie, the U.N. and Brad
Those orphans and Billy Bob
An if that’s why he ran?
Closed my eyes tight
To help get a grip
Always conscious
Of my own little sin
But this proved brief
As I managed a spin
Perhaps that I should’a
Been on my knees
Now it’s all just a blur
Why it occurred just then
That I’d never tried
Any Limburger Cheese!
Then I thought of the poor lady
All covered with burns
Wondered at the menu...
An the sausage she’d ordered,
All smothered in rum?
The waiter who lit it
Their party gone numb
Before you get to feeling
Ever so obliged
Offering advice
Be it humble or nice
Just make sure
It hasn’t happened
To you more than twice-

G.Marie,
Great poem!! Love that last/ending stanza especially.
Ha ha ha! Also got a chuckle out of the Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt, Angelina and Linburger Cheese references!
Blessings,
