Working From Home

Ask chrome 
Of how I roam
Of how I mold
Trying to build gold

Working from home, my dream job!

Ask me
Of how I dream
Of how I avoid steam
Of how I create schemes and streams
Trying to make whole cream

Working from home, my dream job

This is no joke
It's hope
If only poetry would put food on my table
It would be an avenue to gamble.

Poetry seldom puts food on the table but feeds the soul to capacity and this true in your case! Wonderfully done, makes someone think of the alternatives in life, dear Njeri!

I don't think I could actually sit and force myself to write - it may take away the pleasure of the spontaneity of writing :-) Hugs Jan xx

To be honest I don't see it actually happening, and if it does I'll be shocked. Like seriously, poetrysoup has so many poets and am sure most of them would like to live a life where all they want is pen and paper everyday
