Darren Watson Poet Verse

A Bit of Fun

I am trying to be patient
Determined to be fair
But she's been over an hour in the bathroom
What is she doing in there .

She said I must be ready 
So I wear my suit and tie
But now we can't go out 
Until her hair is fully dry .

I am feeling fruity
She is feeling sick
All those bloody headaches
Are really getting on my wick .

She succumbs to my nagging 
I try so hard that I feel faint 
But all she has to say is 
That ceiling needs some paint .

She's got a soap on the telly
But there is football on tonight
I can't find where she's hidden the remote
Now how can that be right .

She says I'm drinking too much beer
I must abstain or i'll get fat 
She's sat there munching chocolate cake 
Where is the fairness in that .

Yet if it were not for women 
Where would us fellows be 
Its a good job I'm only joking
and I truly believe in equality.

Robin Davis March 2, 2014 at 11:57 AM Darren Another funny and crazy one. I have been married for 27 years and this I can relate too. LOL I do try to compromise as much as possible. Thats what marriage is. HHHMMM Or sometimes just want to kill him. HEE HEE Thanks for the great comment on my Jailed poem Robin Davis March 2, 2014 at 12:00 PM oops I meant my Wedding poem LOL

Cherl Dunn February 12, 2014 at 6:01 PM Dude i draw the line at taking a mans remote lol I even run a bubble bath for my hubby and take out the garbage two, i guess i'm a rare one. but i baby him because he works so hard and his health is not very good. Man i feel for ya in this write, i see women do this stuff all the time, they even tell me that's not your job two do that it's mans work what is this statement i'll tell it's wrong equity means equility. cheri Darren Watson February 14, 2014 at 4:14 AM Thank you Cherri I'm sure you both look after each other and that is as it should be , My director is a woman and says I'm good at what I do but I do tend to sulk when I can't get my own way . That's a disgraceful thing to say , So I'm not talking to her today , lol

Anne-Lise Andresen January 30, 2014 at 7:02 AM - Really fun to read, Darren ......... so, where is the justice ...... Men will never understand women completely 100% - or vice versa :)))) - Thanks for letting me a smile :))) - oxox // Anne-Lise :) Darren Watson January 30, 2014 at 7:09 AM So true . I tell my mates when I hear them moaning that they should appreciate all they have but I've had 3 long term relationships in my life and though I'd love to be a coward and place all the blame on the ladies for the break ups , I took a long hard look at myself and was shocked to find that we men are not perfect , Delighted you got a smile and thanks for the lovely comment.

Dr.Ram Mehta January 30, 2014 at 5:38 AM As the title suggests it's funny with light humor, Darren Darren Watson January 30, 2014 at 6:02 AM Thanks Dr I'm a single man and have never been married but most of my friends are and I do hear them having a whinge or two whenever I visit . This was my take on that , So I wasn't sure how it would come across.
