Poem
Four dogs two kids and one lover Too hard to balance my calendar When I just need some time to myself, take a breath and eat lunch This one needs to go here And the other there And then my lover says where’s my kiss dear? How to fit it all in? And still keep a grin And also make everyone feel like they win The kids they need watching The dogs they need walking And don’t ask me what my lover is talking Soccer mom is on the go Now basketball we have to show And when is your concert?, oh no! Am I double booked by accident? Which dog goes to the vet? And I haven’t even made dinner yet! Scraped knees they need mending Wounded feelings need tending How am I losing every rummy hand? I need to pay attention My car’s oil needs changing And then there’s the recycling Help me out I ask my lover, please The floor it needs washing And the boys need a talking When can I get time for a mile walk in? My job is demanding But gives me change to buy candy How did I ever think I could work full time and still plan things My lover he’s patient and very understanding He has to be because of all the chaos we’re withstanding But we’re in this together and united we’re standing I tell him he’s a cutie whenever I can He says I’m beautiful and then mentions my cans We keep it going, still in love we hold hands Life has its crazies Sometimes even lazies Each precious moment we try encapsulating The wild times they end The kids leave the den And what’s left are the memories we made with our clan I wouldn’t trade this for anything different So much we lived through I wouldn’t miss it Even though a few times I did say I need just 5 minutes
