Sputum.

My name is Mr Sputum

I'm a clingy sort of chap

No one tends to like me

And I don't care a scrap

I look for poorly people

And catch them unawares

I get down there inside their lungs

Whether poor or millionaires

When it comes to shifting me

I really have to laugh

At all the different ways they try

When most of them are naff

Cos when it comes to stickiness

I'm in a league all on my own

Huff and puff all you want

I simply won't be blown

But there is a Forum

For people that I hate

Who give advice on moving me

And my stays terminate

They call the place HealthUnlocked

And that is what they do

When people act on their advice

I end up down the loo.

Oh dear Mr Sputum, you really are a gem

With your many stage names like Mucus or Phlegm

But you were uninvited, you make me gasp and cough,

So I think I'll spit you out and you can buzz right off.

[Hidden in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Hey! Off to a fine start. 😃

[sassy59]

Sputum, mucous, whatever’s said

It’s something Pete has come to dread

Coughing choking come what may

Trying so hard to clear his airway

Cough some more, more and more

Oh no! It’s ended up on the floor!

Thanks again Don.....brilliant! Xxx 👍👍😂👍

[Hidden in reply to sassy59]

That's the best place for it to be

At least it's somewhere you can see.

It's worse when you become alert

To it running down the front of your shirt.😫

[sassy59 in reply to Hidden]

Yes, Pete’s had that too! 🤣🥰😘

[WheezyAnne]

Oh, that is wonderful. I was crying earlier, feeling upset with myself, then a poem by the master Don caught my eye, and changed my tears to a happy bright smile. Brill!

[Hidden in reply to WheezyAnne]

Oh Anne, you must never get upset with yourself, Luv. There are enough people around ready to upset us without us doing it to ourselves. Be your own best friend. 😉😘x

[Izb1]

Oh! Mr D, this made me laugh and followed up with HH/Sassy's contributions just tickled me, thanks to you all 🤣🤣🤣

[SquirrelsHolt]

Good morning to you Mr.

D and reading todays comical rhyme also cheered me up too. Just the best tonic available and you dont charge,lol 😂!!

Call it whatever name you like but this horrid sticky green muck is the work of aliens🤮👽.

Hope you and Midge have a good day 🐿💞

[cofdrop-UK]

[Hidden in reply to cofdrop-UK]

Just don't stop. I soak it up like a sponge. 😁😘

[Jaybird19]

Brillant. Can you get these all published through BLF perhaps and the answers of course!

[Hidden in reply to Jaybird19]

I just write 'em and post 'em. 😉

[RoadRunner44]

Oh yes, Another one , a perfect example which each of us can relate to DOn.

[soul-123]

Best yet Don well done! horrible stuff though. X

[skischool]

Well i am late to a party celebrating snot

Thankfully this morning i haven't got a lot

Huffing and puffing doesn't do that much for me

The trick to loosen all that muck is good old breakfast tea

Curiously as a smoker i never seemed to care

But i imagine that my lungs back then were really in despair. x

[JANET127]

lol...look at the people you inspire to write poetry! FUN!!! JANET127

[Amanda3011]

Brilliant Don !! 😂

[Shirleyj]

Perfect description 🤮x

[pegbl]

Brilliant Don as always you have the knack of hitting the nail on the head as they say......because you, like most of us have been there done that and have the t shirt 😂 Xxx

[Claudine]

Unfortunately I blocked up the loo and plumbing by putting it down the loo!

Any other suggestions?

[Hidden in reply to Claudine]

Errrr...............no. 🤓

[Caspiana]

HAHAHA 😂😂😂😂

[Hidden in reply to Caspiana]

Mad isn’t it.🙄😘

[Caspiana in reply to Hidden]

It's hilarious in a good way!! 😊
