It Never Ends

Water, water everywhere And all the dishes in sink. Mud tracks smeared everywhere Wiped away to return in a wink. Food, food so much to make Breakfast, lunch, supper. Just diet, for God’s sake Plus, you’re such a lousy tipper. Heaps and heaps in the hamper Sweaters, hoodies and jeans. Every day it’s a damper Walking into these monstrous scenes. Inspired by the "ruined" first line of Samuel Taylor Coleridge's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
