Neatness Poems

Neatness and Godliness

Every picture I’ve seen of you as a child,
You wear your hair in plaits.
A stern middle parting and two dark brown braids
Falling down on each shoulder. 
A maypole’s dream.

You would do your best to wash them when you could,

Premium Memberchoosing neatness over people

His sloppy slipshod attitude
Was picked up by both daughters

Standard Neatness

S-tandard neatness is applied, 
E-rasing the morbid mystery; 
A-trocious ailment is avoided, 
N-astiness is eerie enemy.

G-ruesome grime is washed away, 
R-eliable alcohol stops the menace; 
E-nhanced hygiene kills the germs, 
E-mploying standard
N-eatness.

Neatness Protocol

N-eatness protocol cleans
I-nvisible dirt of the devil; 
K-illing the pandemic plague
K-eeps one from being
I-ll.

G-et neatness protocol
I-nto the glorious victory; 
O-bliterate the vicious
V-irus of morbid mystery.
A-pply the health standard, 
N-icely use the alcohol; 
N-ew normal now employs
I-ts neatness protocol.
