Ha, be careful what you write - or it may well be you inside that purpose built garden bed. I would take its size and shape as a pretty big warning. Lol. Excellent entry, humorous, smooth rhymes, well composed.
Best wishes for your entry.

Ha! Ha! Thank you so much for the fun review! It was quite fun to write and I'm so happy it brought a smile or chuckle along with its read. Thank you again and have a wonderful Thanksgiving week!
Comment from Bill Schott
This funny, nonsense poem, New Hobby, is a fun verse which reminds us all of the maddening confinement and of the many thoughts our friends may have had of our demise. Funny now.

Comment from Terry Broxson
A funny excellent entry to this contest, good luck. The only problem is that it is suppose be nonsense. Maybe, this is foretelling and makes too much sense! Just kidding. But it will not hurt to just be alert to stuff! Good Job.

Hi, Terry! Thanks so much for the fun review... I think my hubby (of 52 years) has been keeping "one eye open" when he goes to bed - just in case! LOL! Both he and our kids got a great chuckle out of my "New Hobby!" Thanks again for the great review and have a beautiful Thanksgiving week!
Comment from LisaMay
I hope you enjoy your last few days above ground - it looks like the plot is ready for your body. Being cooped up with someone during a period of lockdown can exaggerate every little frustration with nerves wearing thin - what a pity your wife turned her thoughts to negativity instead of taking up actual gardening. As they say, 'Happy wife, happy life', except in this case it's your death that will make her happy, unfortunately for you.

Hi, LisaMay, and thank you so much for the wonderful review; however, I must confess that I am the wife who took up the gardening! I wrote this for my hubby (of 52 years) and both he and our kids have gotten some great chuckles from it... I will say, though, I've noticed he's been sleeping with "one eye open" at night... just in case! LOL! Thank you again for the great review and have a beautiful Thanksgiving week!
Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Heh heh heh... pretty humorous poem for the
Funny Nonsense Poem writing prompt contest. You took a horrible pandemic and turned it funny. Well done.
The rhymes do not seem forced. Your poem flows well. It draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

Hi, Gypsy! I'm so happy that you enjoyed my New Hobby as it was quite a fun one to write... We have endured such sadness over the last year or so, I was hoping that it was time to lighten things up and add a chuckle or smile from the read. Thank you again for the great review and have wonderful Thanksgiving week!
Comment from Bill007
This is really great and very timely! I'm sure we can all relate. And I love the ending! I know most people have felt that way at some point in this whole mess we're in with the pandemic (unless you live alone like me). Very well done.

Comment from Robert Trudel
Hahaaha. Such a good laugh. Well done. It also reflects of so many people, the tragedy of some who could not get to see family members in old age homes, everyone cut off from the other. And tensions between couples at home and nowhere to go.

Hi, Robert! I'm so happy this made you laugh and greatly appreciate your wonderful review... I'm hoping that we have cleared the worst of these tragic times and that we will find ourselves appreciating the things we take for granted! Thank you again for the great review and have a very blessed Thanksgiving week!

I love it, flows smoothly, and makes the reader laugh. Your poem has universal appeal. We all can relate. Our loved ones can drive us as crazy as we drive them. To be fair I must read them all before voting. Good luck with the contest.

Comment from humpwhistle
Ah, I'm guessing a lot of people where driven to 'gardening' during those long periods of lockdown. Even love suffers of over-exposure. Being that I live alone, I had no one to 'garden' for.
Love your little ditty.
Best of luck at the polls.
Peace, Lee

Ha, this is a funny little poem and a good entry for this competition. I think lockdown drove everyone a bit nuts, but luckily no one threatened to kill me. Thanks for sharing this and have a great day
