All I Needed To Learn Was At The Toilet Bowl!

A terrible thing happened on July 24th,
The clip in my hair, she headed north.
I couldn’t find it that lovely morn,
But the sound of that toilet! In form?

I knew, I just knew what it would be,
Where north had become don’t you see?
Well some wisdom then I had to seek
Several people to whom I did speak.

They said “call a plumber, and here’s the number”
They said “women like you couldn’t be any dumber!”
But I knew I could do it so I called my mentor,
My brother just said “go to the store”!

So I went to the store, several times it became
A place where I went, just to aim!
I bought my supplies after asking some guy
A question or two to help me get by.

I fixed it all right, but it still leaked a might,
I stopped using it again, all through the night!
I procrastinated lots, I avoided the work,
I couldn’t proceed till found the big smirk.

It serves us well to eat the frog first!
Because it then saves us from having to burst.
It so much the better than having to curse,
And having to call on the helpful great nurse.

I learned that the frog, tho’ ugly it be,
Really needs to be eaten, That’s for sure!
Because it becomes too much to endure
And language becomes not possibly pure!

I found that I needed to work on my knees,
And ask for all help, if you please!
We all have to do number 2 don’t you see,
We’re not really healthy till we do more than pee.

One thinks it terrible just having to poo
But you know you’re not healthy unless you do!
So to this I say, when it all hits the fan,
Just find the smirk and make your own plan.

Understand that the crap we get in our day
Can become a source of play.
It creates an understanding heart,
Teaching us how to do our part,
And how to connect right from the start.

This all happened this last week but I can tell you now that I'm not afraid to tackle a toilet bowl mount anymore! It only took me three days what with phoning my brother after getting the run around from other male friends who told me I needed help, I needed to take the tank off the toilet, and other agrivating discouragements! Yeah for my brother who became my toilet coach! LOL.
