Sonnet 28 My Sweet Love Does Keep An Orderly House Poem by David Wood
Sonnet 28 My Sweet Love Does Keep An Orderly House
My sweet love does keep an orderly house
Her tidy kitchen is her pride and joy
‘Tis swept clean, no dust not even a mouse
With her rolling pin, her favourite toy
Which she claps when with cross swords we do row
When I fail to become her favourite boy
And to keep the peace I do take a bow,
When with a peaceful tongue I then employ.
But those cross swords are few and far between
And most of our time spent we are happy
With our love we do paint a pretty scene
Except when it is my turn to change a nappy.
Oh, the cup of life can be a strange brew
One minute up the next down, how so true.
I lover her rolling pin! ! ! I am pondering about that! ! Very funny! ! !
An orderly house is a reflection of one's internal state; a beautifully written poem by a man who knows how to keep the peace. And to keep the peace I do take a bow.
A beautiful kitchen can augment the loveliness of a happy home! An orderly house and a tidy kicthen is the dream and priority of any home maker! ! Enjoyed this musing on your domestic life! !
The cup of life can be a strange brew. Nice ending to a homely poem.
David this is adorable - and no doubt true of some households - loved this!
