For an umpteenth time, I fix my tie
glance at the clock and sigh
The memorial service starts at eight
And as always, we'll be late
I yell 'Hon, what are you waiting for? '
and from her side of the bathroom door:
'Tell them I've got mourning sickness'
(I laugh at such a witty quickness)
she opens the door, perplexed somehow
then gives me a smiling hug
says 'therein lies the rub -
it's doubly funny now'
Aww, this is a sweet one Chuck. And you listen to Scarlett, she speaks words of wisdom there! Hugs Anna xxx

That's what good poetry writing is all about - taking a little slice of life and giving it a little something. Quirky, witty penning. love, Allie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Chuck, She most likely was a normal person once, besides what you did to her, what have you done to to her ? I just know that you are proud of both. B.V.A.
Awww poor thing...tell her I feel for her...crackers..eat crackers before getting out of bed! Hugs, Dee
Awesome write, Chuck... your poetry is the perfect fix for 'mourning' sickness. I'm not sure about the morning sickness though? Brian
