LOL! Amusing write. This poem falls into the category of "can't win for losing." It's nice when couples are equal and each contributes to the relationship. Sometimes it gets lopsided, that is, one is more dominant than the other but hopefully those times are few. Marilyn

Thank you. My relationship is very equal, every time my wife tells me to do something, she allows me the last words. 'Yes Dear.'

LOL! Sounds like my house in the reverse.

Thinking back to my younger days, I can relate to the wording of your poem and I too regret some of the stupid things that I did. Well written, something a lot of men can relate to.

Comment from GracieAnn
BC,
I enjoyed the rhyme and meter. I guess that the wife can call the shots sometimes, but the hubby can hold the income.
This line -She put me of me place that day-seems a little confusing. In my place seems more natural.
Nice work! :0 GracieAnn

Thank you Gracie. I've now changed the 'me' to 'my.' I seem to have an illiterate keypad. Thank you for the five stars

I love this poem! There is so much truth in each line. Your sense of humor comes through and makes me chuckle.
You met a wonderful challenge in matching the title with the poem itself.
Great poem!

Comment from Paul Bownas
I loved the humour, and I am happily married for 46 years! I think that secretly you are not so disappointed as you would have us believe, and the last verse to me proudly if a little sarcastically, that you are really quite happy with your lot!

I like it. Good Rhythm and rhyme Bob. I'm sure many married men and women second guess their choice of getting married and having kids. It can get tiresome sometimes. Well done my friend. Nancy
