Annoying Neighbour

An annoying neighbour Lives a few houses down A neighbour has no concern for people living around him Celebrations holidays until dawn It goes on until 4 in the morn Followed the sane the next day Plays music so loud all evening One can have a party for one Inside their own bedroom Music plays on till the early dawn Bike races on a walkway path Are so loud can awake the dead Complain to the mayor-does not help He tells us these parties are allowed So the annoying neighbour has his way Hoping the next mayor will change the law

Darlene,this is a nice creative reflection. Now you can read my comments of the poem"spouse". I usually use imagery satirical perspectives.

Years back, I had one of those once, across the street; cars everywhere, drugs, music blaring till 4am; anyone who called the police, the police would come out and tell them who reported them and you'd find hubcaps missing the next day or something like that. They finally moved away and the whole neighborhood was so happy. Well penned truth of so many who've experienced this.

I have had obnoxious neighbors, too. There is a Rolling Stones song called "Neighbors" with a similar theme. Peace & Love Matthew Anish

I think this is a universal thing. We had a neighbor who at 3:00 am every night would sound off his truck horn which is a train whistle. It was very annoying. I can relate to this poem.

Hello Bette,yes you can. I do not mind a train whistle.I hear it at a distance. But a truck doing this is silly. I feel for you. Have a nice day my friend.

Darlene! Sorry to hear this. No, noise is not acceptable in each city in the world. Not allowed where I live in the USA. I just call the POlice and they go to the annoyers and that ends that. I live also in a gated community where the rules are strict on noise. I have lived for years with crazy Noise People and nobody gave a hoot. Now, Live in heaven. A blessing))) Love, PR

Hi Darlene, we have one of those neighbours but we have sold our house and are moving into a secure complex - they are very annoying these kind of neighbours. Lovely poem. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Hello Jennifer, yes an annoying neighbour gives no thought for the neighbours around them. They play loud music until dawn. Itmakes it hard to sleep. have a nice evening my friend. hugs Darlene

Oh Darlene! Sorry to hear that. ..and you remind me of a neighbor I have who comes from MA and shoots off a cannon (that broke things in my house) (and traumatized the pets in the neighborhood). The sheriff said , he could, until the sheriff was there to witness it - KABOOM! Sorry, for such a long comment, but this poem brought it back to me. Well done :)

Hello Heidi, I do not mind long comments.Oh I think shooting off a cannon is worse than what I have been through. It must have been scary for you. Have a nice evening my friend. Thank you for the lovely comment.
