The Pig
by Anonymous
It was the first of May
A lovely warm spring day
I was strolling down the street in drunken pride,
But my knees were all a-flutter,
And I landed in the gutter
And a pig came up and lay down by my side.
Yes, I lay there in the gutter
Thinking thoughts I could not utter
When a lady passing by did softly say
'You can tell a man who boozes
By the company he chooses'
And the pig got up and slowly walked away.

ReplyDeleteare you calling me a pig? grins
ReplyDeleteGlad there wasn't one around when I fell in the gutter! That would have shattered my ego!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like an old Irish song.
ReplyDeleteOh that is a very cute pig, and smart too!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds to me like something Dorothy Parker would have written. I like her poem "Whistling Girl".
ReplyDeleteThis poem has always made me laugh.
