The House

The house,
                                                                   
sailing on the boathouse,
                                               
trains are in the roundhouse,
                                       
I served jury duty in the courthouse.
                             
I played with dolls in the dollhouse,
                                 
my husband is in the doghouse,
                                     
I never want to visit the jailhouse,
                                   
flowers filled the greenhouse.

Thanks for writing. Glad you enjoyed my cute/silly write. It had been a very, very long day/week. I was at the end of my rope when I wrote this. Guess I needed a "Laugh" so I wrote it down. Have a blessed day.........................
