Phone Me Poem: My Miss-you Mess

A home should be nice and neat

Spic and span

Clutter and mess I cannot stand!

Ow! Lego under feet

Next put the laundry away

Drawers tied together with moose gut cordage

Ugh! In the way

The cedar weaving we’ve had no time for

But….

I don’t clear that clutter from the counter

Nerf bullets underfoot mark the place where you ambushed me

Such glee

Lego in the Ficus tree – the world you imagined and related

So animatedly

Smears on the mirror

Your Xs and Os to me

A home should be neat and tidy

Spic and span

Clutter and mess I cannot stand!

But tidying this space

Erases You from this place

So I wait for you to come home

And try to remember

Not to reprimand

A home should be full of glee

Crap and clutter

You and me
