The Perfectionist

Chosen to be a perfectionist

all things in order

not out of order

the pantry is orderly

the shelves are amazing

the dishes are placed

neatly arranged with a homemade cake

perfectly amongst the race

clean clean clean away

no time wasted, non-worried faces

this is right, that is wrong

a perfect home

If it means being alone

straighten out items, neatness all around

when leaving, must come back to the cleanness

orderly you see, nothing is thrown around

If it is, you have to get down

seemed perfect in all that was done

the atmosphere is right

each day and night

shoes come off at the door

sinks are wiped down after repeated usage

no time for disorderly, nor items misplaced

a  day to relax, some days are amazing

the perfectionist, having some patience

what a view being seen

overall, it's clean clean clean

neatness in appearance

nothing out of line

even the clock on the wall

cannot be the wrong time

a picture that is crooked

has to be straighten

don't keep them waiting

Some things are not outdated

not a lent on the floor

that cannot definitely be ignored

a life with the perfectionist

as time definitely goes by

sometimes asking, why? why? why?

the dinner invite, extended settings

just a piece of the delicious apple pie

the hand slightly was hit twice

barely hurt, a smile with love

no, not now, that is the dessert

just wait for the appetizers, the entrees

fancy elegant dinner plates are placed

gold silverware, decors, red flowers, and more

the table is so extraordinary

the view is so nice

the room is full of peace, love, and joy

If you're messy, you might not be invited anymore

oh well, the day has gone

all family, friends, and others went home

until the holidays come again

invitations are amongst limited

maybe next time the host will be the guest

and all, figuring out the rest.



The perfectionist.

Note:   
Sometimes a perfectionist will change some guidelines.
Faith, Prayers. Jesus. Grace.

Can this be me? You?
orderly, clean, & neat.

Some people have said that cleaning can be mind relaxing. Also, a form of exercise because you're always moving. After the results, you can see the finishing. 
An atmosphere that is suitable to live in.
