Set For Life

Set for life are the memories family times can engrave.
I hoped for functional behaviors our heart’s could sustain.

Racing, zoom-zoom, noises broadcast from my husband's cave
Where motorcycle races and noises always entertain.

Viewing wrestling on his bedroom TV is our offspring's fave.
He emotes enough excitement to possibly overstrain.

I nest in our living room with all edibles I might crave
And watch dramas that aid my reality escape campaign.

Apart, we watch TV warmly united in love's blessed wave.
By yelling through the house we keep togetherness in our domain.

Oh wow. I had a little feeling this might be your writing when I saw an example of your unique word styling in there! I SO relate to this poem because I love watching TV with my "edibles'. Hmmm that wouldn't be marijuana cookies, would it? I loved the mention of husband's cave and that funny end stanza. Well done and congrats, cutie pie
