Cooking, washing, cleaning, scrubbing, my day
Shouting, yelling, screaming, swearing, no fun
Loving, caring, teasing, holding, no way
Shopping, parking, herding, pushing, I’m done
Children, husband, mother, brother, all phone
Teacher, doctor, warden, postman, I meet
TV, I Pod, CD, X Box, I moan
Buses, metro, station, dentist, no seat
Hoover, micro, washer, cleaner, all help
Garden, sunshine, hammock, vino, such bliss
Summer, Autumn, Paris, Reno, myself
Lover, boyfriend, hotel, passion, a kiss
Laughing, smiling, touching, caring, OK
Drinking, eating, sleeping, smiling, my day.
