Oh, Plunger Handle, polished fine,
Made of a very stately pine,
How often you must rue your day
While shlurping potty stuff away.
And when you're through with sacred hole,
You then retreat to hidden knoll
Where you grow dusty until when
Your service is in need again.
But, Plunger Handle, I love you!
You do what no one else will do!-
For when my toilet's in distress,
You reach right in and stop the mess!
For if my hands I had to use
Against that crap, I'd surely lose!
In hopelessness, I'd watch it grow
Until it had an overflow!
And so, my Plunger Handle fine,
I'm glad that I can call you mine;
When toilet's start to clog and spray,
You shlurp right in and save my day!

Poets can write about anything - as you have proven here. Hilarious - like on ode to a plunger - well written, easy to read and understand.

"Shlurping"?? lol
This proves that no subject is beyond the reach of a true wordsmith. It's about time someone celebrated the lowly toilet plunger. haha Funny stuff!
