This is definitely a smiley. I love the humor and it had great form and flow. Zany is good and I love the artwork that you chose. Such a great tribute to the throne. Thanks for the laugh this morning. I hope it does well in the contest.

I DID get a chuckle out of this. Clever and interesting and thank God for indoor plumbing. Probably the most important thing in the house. Marilyn/BeasPeas

I like zany - something quite
different that makes it all the
more interesting - well penned,
my friend.

And good luck with the contest.

Well, I did get a laugh out of your ode to your toilet. LOL I guess it is something we all need yet don't give too much thought to. I never really thought of it as a friend though. Still it is a very unique take on an ode poem. Smiles,

OMG I've reviewed them all now. Eau de Toilette! If you didn't laugh you'd have to cry. The puritans who have never hugged this lady all night will doubtless either turn up their noses or look down them at this one. I am no puritan however so i laughed a five star laugh. Mind you, as she gets older she could turn crotchety and unlike the personification refuse to have flushes. One day yo'll pull her skirts down and there will be an ominous clank and... nothing. How can I explain it in terms you might understand? Well its like she's got a headache really.

Talking of headaches the artwork prompts this one: Since snails are are hermaphrodite how can you tell their gender? The femsale is the one with the headache!

Hi there,

I enjoyed this piece. Yes the toilet is always there... through thick and thin.

In the third verse the word 'glean' is misused. It should be 'gleam' which still works as an approximate rhyme.

Good luck in the contest.

A nicely done tribute to one of the most utilized, under appreciated devices in the home today.
I wonder how, say seventy-five years ago, "Ode To My Outhouse" would compare?
The accompanying photo is exceptionally fitting, although a bit frightening.
Well done.

Your poem is creative and fun. It's great how you "kept it clean" with a topic that is part of everyone's daily life.

Your rhyme scheme is consistent, and your poem has a positive rhythm / flow.

Hello mystery writer,

LOL I love this Ode to the toilet. How did you come up with that? It is very original and you meet the contest requirements. Good job!

Too cute and too true. You did a great job with this one. Years ago I wrote a similar ode, not so nice. It was called 'An Ode to a Commode.' They are a necessary item in every home. It would be hard to give praise to an 'out house.'
