Mark Setgo Poem
Before the Internet, when they were bored, what did our parents do?
I asked my fifteen brothers and sisters and they don't have a clue.

Mark Setgo Poem
This morning I am on my way
To teach another long, hard day.
My stomach's often tied in knots
Before I face those screaming tots
With untied shoes and runny noses,
My job is not a bed of roses,
And yet my heart keeps telling me
There's no place else I'd rather be.

Mark Setgo Poem
He dreams of the girl with the long, brown hair,
Wakes up and a woman with gray streaks is there.
She dreams of the boy with dark hair on his head,
Wakes up and a bald man is sharing her bed.
Time is cruel, and our youth it obscures,
But in spite of its ravages true love endures.

Mark Setgo Poem
Sometimes I wake up happy
And out of bed I leap,
Sometimes I wake up grumpy,
Sometimes I let her sleep.

Mark Setgo Poem
First thing at dawn, when I get up
She pours hot coffee in my cup
I whisper thanks and let her know
"Oh sweet Keurig, I love you so."

Mark Setgo Poem
A marriage will be sweet romance
When the wife's the one who wears the pants.
Free of problems, free of glitches
When it's the wife who wears the britches.
No arguments or ugly scenes
When it's the wife who wears the jeans.
Marriage is lovely, face the facts,
Only when women wear the slacks.

Mark Setgo Poem
Mosquitoes roar with laughter,
They ridicule and scoff
When they see us lowly humans
Spray ourselves with Off.
They chuckle and they giggle
As they bite us through the shirt
"I'll have some Off for dinner
And some plasma for dessert."

Mark Setgo Poem
Any total ignoramus
Can end up rich and famous,
But riches and celebrity
Often lead to misery.
Contented I have grown
Being poor and little known.
