EXCELLENT!!!Sometimes we want to tell our significant others to go sleep on the couch, but we are cowards. My ex snored so loudly on the sofa that our daughter ran into the bedroom crying, I can't sleep because "Daddy" is snoring to loud, because of Sleep Apnea,I told her to jump into the bed with me and that "Daddy" would have to sleep on the couch all night. After all of the rudeness (farting, snoring)they end up being the love of our dreams. Great Job!!!cj

Thank you so much for your lovely review. The poem appears to have hit a chord with so many!
Comment from Teresa Paul
I thought this poem was hysterical! I was laughing out loud throughout this entire piece of excellent work! Wonderful cadence of rhymes caring the reader quickly from one funny verse to the other. I am so showing this to my husband, who constantly asks, " Why are you sleeping on the couch?" I know that there are going to be many more wives, like me, who will show it to their husbands too! Job well done!

There certainly has been, in fact I'm bowled over with the lovely, light hearted responses I've received for this very basic poem! (one person took it seriously, and was not amused!)

Always remember it takes brains to have a sense of humor! I would love to see more of your talent. Blessings to you and yours, Teresa

Ha ha ha I bet that could be said of a awful lot of women's feelings on their partners!. This is a real good write on something I wouldn't be brave enough to try! Although once I wrote similar, though it hides undiscovered in an old book somewhere!. Great work!, Stephanie

Thank you! Funnily enough, it's been mostly women who have responded except for a chap who has never posted anything before who gave it a 3 and basically told me it was a load of rubbish!...I hope his partner reads the poem...

Thank you. It would seem, according to the hilarious responses, that the poem struck a few chords!

Alexis, what a lovely piece of humour and enduring love. We have all done it, all experienced it. Love is lasting, or should be,the things you write about fade away.

Your poem set a light mood for the entire day. Your poem flowed well, rhymed well, started up one way and ended another except for the last line, that tied the whole poem together.

Thank you! I just wanted to impart some raw humour for a change! (been writing a lot of heavy stuff in my books!)
Comment from Augustusprime
There are sincere elements of the poem that allow the reader feel the woman's desperation. You can imagine her thinking how did I get trapped like this, am I happy. Howevere the hackneyed approach of ryhmning poetry sucks the life out of the poem and leaves it's lying in the wet street next to an old used limmerick.

Comment from Charlie Crewes
Your title forced me to read this and I admit I was amused by it. I especially liked the last two lines, but the entire work was clever and I would not be concerned about offending anyone. We are all humans and let's have some fun at times with our writing. I thought it was a fun piece!

Comment from peggles
Such a fun read
Certainly made my day
What a fantastic poem
It was fun, it rhymed and in a strange way romantic for all your gripes the love shows
It was beautifully balanced
I thought the last line was priceless
