Show me a person with a tidy desk and I'll show you someone with nothing to do. If you need to set something done, don't give it to the person with a tidy desk. It will just get swept under the rug.

A very well-written sonnet free verse poem. A tidy desk sometimes mean there is no work to be done. When I tidy my desk it seems I cannot find anything I need to work with.

An interesting topic for your free verse sonnet. I don't sit at a desk but I know when I'm writing the area around is NOT TIDY at all, isn't it part of the creativity LOL
Then there was the complete change with your closing couplet, once she cleaned the desk, the house, she became silent as a mouse. It all worked well together, I enjoyed it.
cheers

My whole house "is never tidy"--who has the time! I am also silent. You captured a realistic mood in this free verse and added a reinforcing artwork. I am glad the Club's prompt inspired you. Smiles- Joan

Does a tidy desk mean a tidy mind? I have worked in the past for some very untidy people who had brilliant minds, but just could not keep ahead of the paperwork! I personally cannot work in a messy environment! A fun write Robina, love Dolly x

Hello, Robina, :)

Maybe you could use a larger print because some people have eye problems. I did reviews in all caps for this one person; she said it helped. It looked like I was yelling, LOL.

Clean your desk! Like me, you like the results, not the procedure in cleaning it. :P

Such an interesting concept ...a free verse sonnet...like washing my hands beneath an've empty faucet..
An unbridled form that becomes a form..
It is mind boggling!
Still....whatever you call it, the verse is personal and human and quirky!

I can relate to not wanting to keep a "tidy desk." Often I need the last thing I touched readily available. Bravo to you that you are able to keep up with the house and the desk!
