I’ve lived here now three years and more

Bugger

Don’t look as good as it did before

Bugger

The skirting board has all gone fuzzy

Bugger

The colour’s dulled, the corners muzzy

Bugger

I’ve filled the place with loads of stuff

Bugger

Heaven knows I’ve got enough

Bugger

They say that after several years

Bugger

The dust bunnies get bigger ears

Bugger

So after three years – here I go!

Bugger

Get out the hoover NO NONO!

Bugger

The biggest torture of my life

Bugger

I’ve got the house though I’m no wife

Bugger

The dust and fluff will have to go

Bugger

No time for poems – here I go

Bugger

….. on second thoughts – SOD IT!

I can live with the dust

Can’t live without poems though!

Double BUGGER!!!!!!

Just how it should be. Throw the housework book in the bin, p-p-pick up a pencil and provide us with more poems like this! You have brightened my day, cheered my flagging spirit and consoled my angst that I may be the only lass who is allergic to housework.
Hurrah for the rebels!! XX

Excellent idea. I might dust of some of my poems though.

HaHa made me laugh! It's like Pam Ayres with a swear word! Bugger. The Audio is it your own voice? I don't know how they work! but I really enjoyed it xx

It's when you're stuck in and you can't help seeing it that I turn to full-on expletives!!! And then try to go out anyway.

Good fun, Ann and the poem is much more valuable than the dusting of course. Unless, as I, you have an asthmatic in the house...! XX

Hehehe - nice to know I'm not the only one with fuzzy skirting boards! My house looked like no one had lived in it when I moved in. Now it looks like several hundred families and their animals live there. Bugger housework - more important things to do! Right on sistah ;D
