What Annoys Me

What annoys me......

I have a list as long as my arm
The things that irritate and cause alarm!

Please don't breathe down my back
My patients will not stand for that!

When you sit and drink your tea
Sit in another room and not near me!

I can not stand to hear you swallow
It goes right through me, if you must know!

I go to the freezer to find some food
But the chill it gives me creates big moods!

And don't get me started when hubby starts sneezing
Not just once but twenty times - ever lasting!

I irritate and annoy me too
But my man, he understands my views!
