Ode to the Toilet

Sigh!

That was my groan...followed by riotous laughter. Is there anything you cannot write a poem about?

You are a pleasure!

The ending was great! This is so different from what you usually write. You sure showed that person in the know, didn't you? Loved it!

Audrey, your poem effuses the verboten subject of effluvia, James Joyce is listening!

Oh Audrey, you're a riot. Nice versatility you possess. Keep it coming baby. Oops, not the kind you wrote about. lol

Audrey hmm.. I loved it :)

Fun and funny! And...a great picture! What a find!

I like the photo and you have presented an hilarious art of poetry.

Masterfully written. Have you seen My Bathsoap Virtues? One of my funniest.

Excellent poetry as usual Audrey.

What an excellent unrhyming poem! Really enjoyed this and voted awesome ;)

What a hoot! Unloaded...Hee

Creative start with that image. Ha Ha did you write your poem on the toilet? Voted funny

LOL! Quite the relief!

Haha Audrey, and I thought I was funny. You are hilarious. I wouldn't even be game to write a limerick about this. Vote up.

Haha, dutifully groan. Awesome!

Hi Audrey,

You gave me my first real smile for the day. Thanks for always giving joy to all who reads your talented words. You are a pleasure to follow and read.

That is so funny, and it brought back memories. I grew up in a small house with two siblings and one bathroom. When we were grown (not groan) we confessed to each other that we used to go to the bathroom and stay until mom or dad ran us out just to find a place to be alone.

In prepschool my English teacher, Mr. Willard (also my baseball coach) had us write a short composition on the statement that "On the most exalted throne in the world, the king is still seated on nothing but his arse." I think you approached something like that but waited on the rhyme of abode and commode, but you never quite got beyond the "throne" part. How disappointing.

Exceptional! This is beautiful, one-of-a-kind poetry, well done.

That is a very good question Audrey. Got to do some research, will get back to you asap...

Well, it gets complicated. I could maybe do my doctoral theses on it, but in the meantime, I have three words for you (in answer to your question) James Joyce Ulysses... :)

LOL, I LOVE it, Audrey! Well, I guess there is some truth in going where no one else has gone! hee hee Surprisingly, well, not really, I can SO relate!

Up +++ tweeting and pinning

You have gone above and beyond here and there is no shame!!!

Ode to the toilet ... where would we be without it ... I mean, it is my first guest of honor in the morning where I contemplate the matters of the day before me and even pray sometimes ... I know, I know, too much information hahaha

Blessings always

Omg! You heard James Joyce Uylsses in one (pardon the pun) sitting Audrey?

This is very funny and creative, Audrey! Thanks for the entertainment.

Cute and funny!

Oh, Audrey. You gave me a good laugh. I guess inspiration can strike at any time and any place. I like this humorous side.

LOL @ this ode to the Toilet , funny write

OMG....LOL, Audrey. It just doesn't matter what you put to verse....it always "comes out" well!......Ohhhhhhhhh moan......that was unnecessary, Paula!...Up funny & awesome.

This certainly is unexpected. A wonderful ode and a great subject to choose, Audrey.

How funny yet courageous to write on such a topic!

You did a great job. Well done!

You have me laughing! A princess at home indeed! Your writing is so clever and entertaining!

A fine tribute to the commode! Love it!

Very very funny Audrey. I have found myself writing on similar topics as of late. Thank you for your poetry and I hope you are well. Jamie

Funny poem abt the toilet

This definitely had me laughing Audrey! I think that we can all relate to being princesses or princes on that particular throne. Ha!

I laughed and chuckled. We all know we go. Just when we don't exactly know. Have a great night.

Audrey,

Happy Birthday!!!

Leave it to you to find poetry even for the "throne." Love it and laughed uncontrollably.

LOL! Who can pass up a title like that when it comes through the news feed? Thanks so much for the laugh!

Great stuff Audrey! This is a tribute to the best moment in the day. Voted up, and henceforth a committed fan of your futures.

Funny stuff. You slide between poems of languishing love and then riotous laughter effortlessly.

When my children were small, I remember dreaming of the day when I could sit on the throne all alone!
