A Dyson Is An Animal

A Dyson is an animal
That you can buy for bucks.
The only thing about this beast:
The price tag really sucks!

But if you get the kind that sleeps
All cradled on the wall,
It’s easy to entice to play
With little folderol.

The nicest thing about this kind:
It cleans after itself,
And after animated play,
Goes back upon the shelf.

And if you splurge and spend a bit
More than you can afford,
There’ll be no tripping when you romp;
You’ll be of one accord.

You cannot play for very long
Or it will drag and drain,
But after a few hours’ nap,
It’s right as rain again!

A Dyson is an animal
That you can keep for life;
The happiest that you are pals
Is sure to be your wife.

Hello Jeff. I have to admit that I had to look up what a "Dyson" was... But once knowledge was applied... I love how it could be your wife... The last two poems I posted were because of my wife ;)

Perhaps, Frances was just happy I wanted to buy a high tech vacuum… we split the chores, I do the vacuuming, she does the dusting. I was going nuts with the old style canister you drag everywhere… I won’t tell her you thought it was her, lol
