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.
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.
I lover her rolling pin! ! ! I am pondering about that! ! Very funny! ! !
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!
