I Am Bored With Everyday Chores

There was a naughty girl, and the naughty girl was she She worked a crossword puzzle, while she had her cup of tea Poured another cup, ......she should get up! for chores and roll her sleeves She had much work to do, but her good intentions flew like feathers in a breeze Instead of mops and brooms, she would sing a cheery tune... while she danced around the room.. Sudsy dish pans full....but Mother Nature pulled her to the sunshine for a stroll Her bed unmade, her bills unpaid, But instead she picked a daisy Beneath a sunny sky ......she heard the lullaby of the birds that sing on high She had meals to cook but would rather look at the snowtop hills nearby So much work undone, and the dinner?......NONE! But she fed her soul instead! _______________________ For Linda Marie's Contest "I Am Bored With _______ By Carrie Richards
