Presidents Holiday

Laundry billowing in the wind
Drove my mother around the bend
She'd greet with scorn
Each Monday morn 
But with ironing done, she grinned!

Premium Member Aunt Alice Murphy

Man, that's Aunt Allie Murphy,
Yeah, ironing board surfing.
See the look on her face,
And She's hooked a great wave.
Pearls with curls then a slurpee

Ideas Above My Station

I
hate
laundry,
washing up,
ironing, dusting,
fixing stuff - and any
kind of household work.
The logical conclusion Is that 
I must be descended from royalty

Cosmic Ironing

in the laundry room of sky
the angels wash
the cloths of heaven
hang them on the clouds to dry
and then begin
their cosmic ironing

Premium Member The Deep End

Granny has found a new trend
 With unseen waves to contend
 Ironing board skurfing
  And living room surfing
 Granny's gone off the deep end!

Premium Member Can Ya Dig It

Wrinkled clothes stacked near my ironing board will just lie there, completely ignored ‘cause today I’ll be groovin’. To the oldies I’m movin’ like a teen to the hits most adored.

Premium Member A Surfing Dame

She stood on the ironing board frame
Where waves of clothes she’d tame
She surfed on thoughts high
Inside the barrel green room a dame
Landing on the blue waves she did fly!

record player
antique concept
floppy disks
worthless now

ironing board
they were once a commodity in every home
now they used only by tailors and dry cleaners
or men who want really crisp collars on their shirts

Premium Member Aunt Ann

Although unsteady was dear Aunt Ann’s gait
She struck a yogic pose for a portrait
On an ironing table
Her legends are now fable
Before her name, we prefix title ‘Late’

Spam, Spam and More Spam

I keep getting spam emails
From Ms Fatale Attraction
Who is a bored housewife
Looking for some hot action
With a younger man, if poss
So if I keep receiving her siren-ing
I might just reply to her
Then I can send her my ironing

Premium Member Grandma's Dementia

Grandmas in a mild utter confusion
In foolish notion in her delusion
Aboard the ironing board
To catch the surf waves, she roared
In bent knees she went, in her illusion

Goofy Footed

There once was a dame named violet,
    Who tried to surf without getting wet.
    So she climbed aboard,
    Her ironing board.
    When trying to surf the Internet.

Ironing Boards

Question for you, chicks and dudes,
What is an ironing board to you?
Did you know they were surfboards?
Yes, they grow up, surf did bore,
Surfboards got a day job,
Being ironing boards is their lot,
Nonsense I do compose,
Only a joke in an ode!

Premium Member Words Are Funny

Words are so funny
As they fall into rhyme.
For instance "Good morning,
Why weren't you on time?"
"The ironing is piled high,,,,,,,
High up the wall,
But the washing is finished_
Thank goodness__" Thats All.

Beach boys on the boom box, surfing away 
Gran’s bored, California dreaming all day 
She’s drinking whiskey 
And feels quite frisky 
Climbs on her ironing board, next stop LA

Wipeout

I've seen the cool moves of Surfing Annie
Her ironing board rides are so uncanny!
When she has a wipeout
She blames it on her gout
I'm proud of Annie 'cause she's my Granny

A Sunshine

a sunshine
warms your ankle

occasionally blowed by the wind
the linden’s flowers cools you up
and you’re smiling

I can barely breath 
I have a peep at you ironing my shirt
paying attention to every detail
caressing and looking it dearly

like you are ironing it on me

Premium Member A Transformation

rough
                     coarse, harsh,
       creasing, wrinkling, crumpling 
vandal, hooligan, uniformity, evenness, 
      furbishing, steamrolling, ironing 
                  creamy, effortless 
                          smooth

Premium Member Surfing Usa

Beach Boys sounds played as I walked through the door
Gran was smiling as she headed for shore
She shouted out in dismay
As the ironing board gave way
And ended up in a heap on the floor...

All In a Days Work

Cleaning the house
Washing dishes
Cooking dinner
It's all in a day's work

Ironing
Baking
Household chores
It's all in a days work

Outdoor work
Working
Driving 
Running errands
It's all in a day's work
Which like, Groundhog Day, occurs, day after day. 

 
Emily Krauss

Washing Machine

Something is wrong with the washing machine
It's supposed to save me time
The sound of it chugging and whirring away
Is simply quite divine

I'm not quite sure how it happened
The process need some refining
'Cos when the washer has finished it's job
I'm always left with the Ironing.

The Old Songs Play Themselves

Some heard as his mother 
stood over ironing in the 1947
summer of Hatboro, Pa.. 
Some of the songs
in black and white
Saturday evening television circles. 
Some later, songs of folksy pretension.  
The songs persist 
anchors of memory, 
like the crystaline 
seeds of clouds, 
matrons of tribes.
