Home Alone :)

Knife goes chopping with the beat, on the mint which scent so sweet, Rice arborio n' boiling heat, Rocking rythm in my feet. Robbie Williams on my radio, My spoilt dog stretched in the patio, Whilst i cook ,clean and sweep, She is snoring fast asleep. Washing floors,doing all chores, In the oven,hot bon bons. Ow.my God,Its getting late, sheets are waiting to be layed, Ironed skirts and steaming shirts, burnt my finger,Ouch it hurts! Some ice will have to do, bumped my head,and turned out blue, No time for me to feel so sorry, Swollen head,No time for worry. Ran upstairs in a breakdance, to sit down,there's not a chance. Jumping quickly in the shower, whilst regaining some cat power, tick tock-tick tock goes the clock, there's no time for happy hour. Brushed my teeth,High Heels in feet, some perfume and a light treat. All is ready,all is well,got my keys texted a pal,Once again ding-dong, the bell,at this moment,Who's the hell? It's my neighbour from next door, melts my ice.He's not a bore, Cos Of him I'm running late, guess my boss will have to wait. Come on in,I said to him, His left foot already in, Handsome guy with a huge grin, Sugar man,One man to win. What Will i offer him ? a coffee? I hadn't any beer,Some wine? or some orange with gin? Time was pressing in, Called at work and did a sin, Called my boss,I faked a fever, So much thanks,She's a believer. Smelled some pepper,started sneezing,My boss's answer was so pleasing,"Stay at home, Get well dear,Lots of love and tender care,don't come close, No need to share,bye,bye dear". Problem solved,so wisely done, Neighbour joined me in the garden, so relaxed licking the Sun. Ate lunch and had dessert, He's a darling and a flirt, After followed with more fun, On my sofa,One ON One. Charma (This is all fiction,apart for the busy routine! My neighbours are good old neighbours too,and Im loyal to my boss,just in case..:-)

Great tempo in your poem about a hectic day that you managed to turn into a bit of stay-at-home fun! (Good idea adding the footnote...just in case!) Fun read, Charma! Love, Carolyn

Fun fun fun, this poem is delightful. Charma, about the numerology blog, have you never heard the expression "the beautiful people?" It refers to the soul. But whether inside or out, I am sure you are beautiful both ways! Luv, andrea
