Let me ask a rather leading question of you,
Do you have a bidet in your bathroom or loo?
Did some plumber from the distant past,
Plumb one in so it would taunt you …and dammit, LAST?!
A bidet is somehow a strange invention,
Is it designed to fill some kind of weird convention?
It’s apparently French for a miniscule pony,
But that seems to me to be a load of baloney,
Why go equine to prevent a certain ‘hum’,
To flush your pudenda, brush up your bum?!
To douse your ‘bits’ and souse your flesh,
To try to make you feel all clean and fresh!
And now the ‘Bio-Bidet’ from Korea, Japan,
With spray-hose attachments – no flash in the ‘pan’!
Apparently they make your bathroom complete,
But I’d rather use one to wash my feet…!

Thank you!
Haha. They seem to me just one more thing to clean. No thanks.
Yes, indeed and a trifle expensive as a foot bath!
Hilarious! Loved your take on it!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am glad that I never lost part of that precious bathroom real estate for such an “appliance”
LOL Roy! Interesting that the Japanese have embraced it so wholeheartedly, don’t you think?!
If you can make a bidet into poetry. I know I am lost, but I keep looking.
Yes, please do! I like a good challenge!
Hehe – I love the use of the phrase “bits”! Very funny!
Hehe – glad it made you laugh!
The appeal of the bidet…Personally, I will stick to showers. maybe I am not that French after all?
You have British citizenship – you must have jumped ship!
