This is great! A brilliant contest entry and the untidiness and mess was oozing from the page with every line. I feel like I need to get some cleaning done now! Best Regards, Dolly x

Congratulations for placing in the contest. That sounds like a good plan, when one house gets filled up with stuff, move to another one. Good rhyming throughout and amusing. Marilyn

I loved reading your poem "Uninvited guests" . It sounded a real mess I wouldn't know where to start a clean up. Your poem rhymed well and I loved your photo.
Best of luck.

Fun poem, I liked it, I am not much good at poetry but I understand this poem it is what I think poems are about the rhyming.One line that is not quite a match for the others,possibly intentional but here goes;
'Pulling out my hair ,place getting under my skin.' only a suggestion,hope you don't mind, 'insane' would rhyme with ' again' if you could fit it in somehow, or 'brain'.

All the space, jam packed, everything scattered at sixes and sevens, this has a nice depiction, I liked the scenic projection and circumstantial existence in description.

Comment from Teresa Williams
That's cute! I am LOL! I know the feeling; and I thoroughly enjoyed the story within the poem. It's so difficult to withstand a messy person, especially when one can be so much of a "neat-nik", so to speak. Me, I love order and a place for everything...I think the greatest fear would be that I can become like the disheveled, and lose my OCD tendencies, of which I am most accustomed! Great poem! --Teresa Williams

Comment from Dean Kuch
Hahaha, no, I'm sorry Anonymous Poet, there's nothing for rent here.
Besides, you wouldn't want to live in the part of Ohio I live in. There are more pigs, chickens, horses and other farm animals than there are people.
If they ever decided to revolt against mankind, we'd all be doomed!
The nearest grocery store is over fifteen miles away and there's nothing around for miles but plowed fields, barns, and farmland.
In addition, my daughter lives here with me too, and she's just as messy.
Cute poem, though.
I wish you lots a' luck.

Oh Noooooo. LOL. The farm animals would be OK. I get along with my goats more than my family sometimes-Haha. Thanks for reading. Much appreciated.
Comment from Badger_29
This is so much fun to red. It bounces along with an up-beat tempo. And, I am certain that most readers can identify with this situation. You have not only followed the writing prompt, but have added another very enjoyable element, the unwanted guest. I loved the "fish-fry" comment. Benjamin Franklin said,
"Dirty laundry and company smell after three days"
Blessings,

Comment from robyn corum
Yep, I get it. I figured out a long time ago, that it's not stuff that matters, it's relationships. I had to learn to let SOME things go. It made my life MUCH more peaceful. I used to want to live in a museum and now I live in a well-loved home. *smile* Good luck!

Ah, to retire-guess it will never be as I support my grown children, but I can't keep up the fight everyday I guess. So for now I will make light of a bad situation and see if it at least gets a place in the contest voting-haha. Thanks so much for reading!
