A-Z Monday - The Lowly Uvula


We're clear up to U, there's not much left to prove to ya
So this week I chose the lowly UVULA
For those not familiar, you can take heart
It's not quite a major bodily part

It's the dangly glob in the back of your throat
It helps your vibrato when you're singing a note
It keeps your food from going down the wrong way
So herewith I claim today's "UVULA DAY"

HAPPY UVULA DAY!

This word briefly entered my head when thinking of a U post. But I figured it was too difficult. You certainly did it justice! Glad I didn't try.

Ben said...

How do you do a uvula justice? The mind boggles.

Jen said...

As Barney Fife said to Andy, "I got a uvula, you got a uvula, all God's children got a uvula."

Glad to see you are keeping up with the uvula community after all these years. Disappointed you didn't post any fund-raising links.
