Domestically Inclined

A poem
See a mess
Clean it up
Sweep the crumbs into a cup
Run the broom across the floor
Take the trash right out the door
Wash a dish
Make a wish
Don't forget to feed the fish
Brush your teeth
Hang a wreath
Hang mistletoe to kiss beneath
Sew a patch
Fix a latch
Put on your apron and stir a batch
Oatmeal raisin or chocolate chip
Chicken wings with onion dip
Put on pajamas in shades of red
Now it's time to jump in bed
Just a thought
Because of the sing song nature of this, I think it would work well as a jump rope rhyme or a kid's book.

This started out as a 3 line poem and it was so much fun I just kept going. Jimmy that is delightful.
Nice to meet you Robie 2. What a great comment for me to wake up to.

This is just delightful -- I feel it to my bones and it feels good. Came across you quite by chance but will now be paying close attention to your wonderful, evocative poetry.
