Auntie Jean’s New Yoga Class

It’s all fun and games

Auntie Jean’s New Yoga Class

They said it was gentle I trusted the flyer

Till Jean got stuck halfway in the tumble dryer

She meant to stretch just a little at most

But now she’s wedged like a crumpet in toast

Her leggings split clear from thigh to shin

We heard the tear and the wheeze of her chin

The instructor said breathe and go with the flow

Jean muttered something I can’t repeat though

Mavis brought snacks, which seemed out of place

She passed out KitKats mid Warrior pose grace

Bob from the butchers came just for the tea

He ended up tangled in someone’s Tai Chi

We tried downward dog, it looked more like a fall

Someone farted, we all blamed Paul

Jean tried again with a mighty big grin

Till she tipped sideways and rolled into Finn

The instructor now rocks in a quiet despair

His zen has dissolved into wild-eyed stare

We ended the session flat on our backs

Laughing so hard we pulled several cracks

So if you’re feeling tense or stuck in a fog

Don’t bother with candles, just join our odd mob

Where yoga means biscuits, a giggle or three

And Auntie Jean’s trapped again, bless her knee
