You even got the title to rhyme. I think you can ditch the 'I can't write with quality' worry - your writing shows you can.
I felt uneasy about tackling this contest as it would mean disturbing Lily - we were both taking our ease in the easy chair and I didn't want to ease my body out from under hers to go to the computer.
Your 'uneasies' are similar to mine - one difference being: lucky you to have a son to take your tech worries to.

    Lol. You should just have written all that for your entry - that would be perfect. Mine was done in about ten minutes but it was a bit of fun. Keeps the cogs going ?.!
    Some of it is a exaggerated - I do like a clean and tidy house, not that it always is! And I don?t imagine any fake illnesses but try to show patience and care for those with illness or disease. Lol. Thanks so much for reviewing. I appreciate your time and your humour.

This poem, Unease? Oh Please!, mentions a number of topics which are more prevalent among we folk who worry more from experience than apprehension. ....................................................................

That is a terrible thought but it makes for an interesting poem. Looking at it from the other side, my second wife was very houseproud and many's the time I used to complain that I did not want to feel I was living in a museum. A home should be homely and feel lived - complete with the spiders if they live there too. They keep the flies down anyway.

    Thanks very much Jim. I actually prefer a clean and tidy home, but it's not always that way - I have become less fastidious with time. In the end it always needs re-doing anyway. I don't think we have spiders inside, but there are spiders' webs outside for sure. Thanks so much for reviewing. Always appreciated.

I think this is a pretty good one. You should do well in the contest. I am uneasy when I have to read a poem at least a half a dozen times and still don't get it. I don't have that trouble with you, Wendy.

    Thanks Paul. I aim to be not abstract. Sometimes a poem uses very lyrical or abstract words but says nothing, other times I just have no idea what it?s talking about, or wonder if the writers themselves know. With me it?s just plain talk. That reflects who I am.
    Thanks so much for reviewing - I always appreciate it.

Hey Lady. I think me knows who it is you are speaking of. And truth be told I would rather be thought of regularly than not be thought of at all. Still, like James T. Kirk, I go where few others have gone.
