Maid For Each Other

It takes two to tango
So here we go
She cooks
I clean
Utensils now have 
A never before sheen
Sweeping, mopping 
And all such things
Under my control
I put my heart and soul
Into these
After all 
Lady of the house
Has to be pleased
The house is always
Spick and span
Initially I was unsure
She encouraged me
Saying, ‘You can’
Our love has since 
Grown by leaps and bounds
More so, in lockdown’s 
Second round
Physical distancing be damned 
We are always cheek by jowl
Love on the prowl
No, no
Our kitchen has little space
That is the case
The 24/7 company
Has made us so tolerant
Of one another 
You see
The distribution of
Household work
Has perked
Our relationship no end
Some bickerings do blend
In the chatter
That’s another matter 
Finally, an honest confession
No third soul around
It is she and me
And no other sound
Can never take eyes off each other
Yes, you guessed it right.....
Truly, ‘Maid for Each Other’
