Michelle Mac Donald Poet Rhyme

The Staircase

Tuesday pounced on Monday’s back
They rolled then tumbled through a crack
Wednesday came to sweep the floor
Thursday chased them out the door
Friday shook his weary head
Saturday went straight to bed
Sunday sought his peace in prayers
While Monday waited, by the stairs..

John Fleming August 13, 2025 at 6:30 AM Reminds me ever so much of a 'Cure' track: "Friday I'm in Love". Enjoyed! :) john Michelle Mac Donald August 14, 2025 at 4:41 AM Thank you, John:) I think it had been the cracks in the upstairs pine floor that had prompted this write. Best wishes to you, John :)

The Grahamburglar May 7, 2016 at 7:51 PM I think this is the fifth or sixth poem of yours I've read tonight. I've genuinely enjoyed every single one of them. You are so talented! You really should consider putting together a collection of children's poems. Michelle Mac Donald May 8, 2016 at 2:10 PM Thanks :) I had thought at one point that I'd love to do a children's book. Then I thought of publishing a book of poetry. Sad for me, my computer got hacked into so some of the poetry was taken. Some I've retrieved, so I'm posting them. Crazy, huh?

Justin Bordner August 10, 2012 at 11:22 PM Sounds like poor Monday cant' get any respect Mikki - Hey I like mondays, is that a sin? J.A.B. % Mikki, I respect your knowledge,I would like it if you would proffer some valuable artistic references for me, such as sculpture,movies,music books,paintings etc... J.A.B. Michelle Mac Donald August 14, 2025 at 4:30 AM I don't believe it's a sin, but it might be a song? :)
