I gave no strings attached.

The rest's up to you.

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!
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
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
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

Just another fall ironing day
Work clothes starched and creased
The sun is shining and it's balmy
Through open windows rustling of birch leaves

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!

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.
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!

Provocative, sexy
Teasing, pleasing, seducing
Satisfying my needs, chasing the kids
Cooking,washing, ironing
Loving, caring

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
Paired with a sweater
Featuring stitches
With long deep pockets
Welcomed everywhere
Popular trousers
Wash and wear them
No ironing
Fold hang or roll
Comfortable
Casual
Overalls
Dungarees
Denim
Cotton
Jeans
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’

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
Form:
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

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.

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!
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

Some ladies enjoy riding on their brooms
All over the house, into all the rooms
Gran rode the ironing board
Only skis she could afford
Off she'd ride, before ironing resumes

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

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...
