Disturbin

ciggys

 

Janet wears a facial net

To mask the scent of cigarette

Her husband, with sin of bourbon

Found the odor quite disturbin

So they settled on a different way

To reduce the odor through each day

She then chewed bubble gum instead

Tho,’ cuz it always stuck to the bed

They both drink bourbon now tis’ said

And with cigarettes now all through

Janets’ assumed a different view

With no mask now, her clearer eye

Is lookin for a different guy

If you give up one 'sin', another will come jumping in! A clever, witty poem, which made me smile as I puffed upon my cigarette. Perhaps I had better keep puffing for my husband's sake!

Haha
Puffin is as puffin does
Whenever my wife and I go for a drive we pass a spot along the way.
A smallish, not cared for residence that dangles from a cliff, over the sea, and as we pass I always joke/repeat to her."have I ever told you how much I love this spot."
I am inclined to do the same with your name, which I absolutely love (should men say that?)
Of course this is my first time but it will be interesting to see if you are as tolerant as my wife!
BTW, I love your name!
Thanks for visit

Explanation. I am not a Grandma, but I am a Great Aunt and Astri is a fairly common Norwegian name. But I am glad you appreciate the 'abstract implication'!!! By the way, I think your wife needs to be tolerant (she says with a smile on her face). Look forward to reading more of yours.

oh dear, you don't realize how much they smell until you stop and smell the roses instead, haha , good for Janet .... :)

I understand these two were so inebriated often, that they couldn't even find their cigarettes let alone actually smoke them!
I just love the spelling checker. I need the same thing for my socks and wallet and teeth among other things
Thanks 4 visit Stella

That was great fun. That chewing gum on the bed post reminded me of Lonnie Donnegan. Now that was a trek back in time:)
