Plan-Your Woes Go

Cup board is in a mess,
Can’t find a dress.
When pots and pans clutter,
My heart does flutter.

To wipe away your daily blues,
Here are some simple rules.
You won’t feel dizzy,
Life becomes more easy.

To make your life nice,
Spice jars you alphabetize.
Have a flip-up shelf on the wall,
After the chores are done fold them all.


To know all the numbers in a gist,
Make and carry a mini phone list.
Create a family message centre,
All can check as they enter.

Monday do the mopping,
Wednesday do the shopping.
You need not perplex,
By the weekend you can relax.

So life will be fine,
If you schedule a routine.
You will have quality time,
With your family which is utmost prime.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, 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.
