My Strange Idiosyncrasies
Try talking to me without instant interruption,
I may get a lil’ excited and try to guess your next words-
I am known to do this beyond human consumption,
and I may come off rude or you may seem unheard.
In reality it’s nothing but a darn old quirk,
I promise I’m not really a selfish jerk!
Clumsy am I to a genuine and blundered fault,
like a bull in a china shop I break things everywhere-
Even when it’s time to come to a halt,
vases, frames and even my dog gets hurt with care.
Am I to blame for the dog’s leg breaking?
nope, I’m just a clutz in the making!
I am known to love to sit in a dark room,
if I come join you I turn off the lights-
Close the blinds and it’s like Dracula’s tomb,
hey, this woman in the house still has rights!
If you fall asleep because it’s too dark with me,
don’t blame me for not wanting a glare on TV!
My hubby can’t stand when I get on the phone,
I get too loud and back and forth I pace-
Maybe it’s my noisy and deafening tone,
that annoys my family as I speedily race.
Just an energetic woman like Lindsey Vonn,
in a dashing hurry all the along.
I have so many strange oddities,
many can be quite funny or get some irritated-
These mannerisms and peculiarities,
is just how God decided to make me created.
I may have silly characteristics and fancies,
but they are all my own idiosyncrasies.
