Domestic Mottoes

A rhymed motto for an everyday domestic object


The gleam of the tiles for pleasure,

The lock on the door for peace,

The cool, comfy seat, made to measure,

The hope of relief and release,

Seclusion, and no one to spoil it,

So treasure this thought of great worth:

One is closer to bliss on the toilet

Than anywhere else on earth.
