March 6, 2018 And now for the lighter side of poetry.... funny poems, childhood poems.... little stinkers! Because nobody said poetry was boring and if they did, they just hadn't found stuff like this.... Today The Teacher Farted © Emma Briody Source: https://www.familyfriendpoems.com/poem/today-the-teacher-fartedPublished: May 2014 Today the teacher farted. It was an awful smell. It was just like a rotting egg, Straight from the depths of hell! She tried to keep it secret By sitting in a group. But it was really obvious, When she said, "Who did that poop?" She screwed her bright, red face up And blamed it all on Claire. But later when I needed help, The stench was round her chair! She avoided my eye contact And ticked my work in green. But she knew that her body smells Were foul and quite obscene. I asked her what that smell was. She said she'd not a clue. I hope to God that eggy smell Was fart and not a poo! Today the teacher farted. My word, what had she ate? I'll always remember what she did, And now I'm thirty eight! Even we teachers are human. Bathroom humour has always managed to make it out into the open.... particularly at the dinner table, but hey, life is funny and sometimes you just gotta laugh at the ridiculous. I like this poem for it is poking fun at something we all do. The best lines are in the first stanza - straight from the depths of hell!! ** Image ID #1855238 Unavailable ** |
