Notes About The Poem

Who's In Charge---Grook

WHO'S IN CHARGE?


Backseat drama
has crossed the line?
Do not cave!
YOU are THE mama!
They don't behave?
Just one more whine
you must be resigned
to drive them home, to bed/pajamas!
Then, enjoy some time to have the wine
you crave!

This grook has a lot of personality too it, and was something different. Your whine/win play on words, I thought, was original. Thanks for your participation!

Good one, Carrie. Love your play on words. My husband likes to say (when someone is whining) "Would you like a little cheese with that w(h)ine?"

You ARE THE MAMA for sure!...And have a glass of wine then another and another, etc.... Also, thanks so much for your comments on my Cottage poem, dear friend...Coming from you it means the world..I know what your dear daughter must be going through, and you as well watching her go through it...I don't know how much help I could be, but if there's anything she needs, I am here for her...God bless you both - Tim
