Housework


Housework, housework, what a bore!

finish one task, then there's more

Who came up with all these chores?

Did a caveman ever sweep their floors?

 

Housework, housework, what a pain!

Dust, then polish, it's all in vain

Once you're finished, it all starts again

So many dishes drives me insane!

 

Grocery shopping leaves me poor

Would like to burn down that high priced store

Dirty laundry on the floor, kids don't help out anymore

Shout it! Bleach it! Try some Gain

Can't get out these stubborn stains!

 

Hire a butler, hire a maid

That's what Oprah would have said

Polish silver, polish glass

This darn housework can kiss my Ass!!!

I've been writing short poems off and on since high school. Just for myself in times of joy, sadness and sometimes fun poems about people I know. I like to make them funny so the person can laugh, maybe when they need a little pick me up. I also like to write short campfire (scary) stories and make them about people I know with some truths to the tales. I'll put some of the ones I have already written and maybe this will inspire me to write more. Thank you
