Bill, This is a very good Five Line poem and it let's us know you were not a happy camper with the rain stopping your grass cutting. Maybe it will dry up soon. Best wishes in the contest. Blessings Teri

Come on Bill, are you really that upset, or are you silently thankful that you can put off this lousy chore for a little while longer? Let me tell you, as I am now 79 years old, I gladly pay my gardener $40.00 a month for doing the bang up job he performs every two weeks.

    Things are a bit pricier here, I?m afraid. Forty bucks will get me a kid with an old Toys r Us mower.

You made me laugh aloud at this. I have heard my father say something very similar before. Thanks for sharing your five-line poem here, and best wishes.

I love this one, Bill. Isn't it a pain when, gosh darn it, that pesky rain means we have to put off our favourite job for another day? May you be able to exhaust yourself with tedium soon ;-)

    Thanks, Mike. Yes, and the stuff grows three inches a day it seems.

Lol. Well, you really have an excellent excuse to be indoors and writing about poem about not mowing the lawn. Don't mow a wet lawn! Thanks for the funny poem. Best wishes in the contest!

    My last excuse was that I couldn't find the lawn mower. My wife pointed to me, then the shed, where I, the lawn mower, could find the appropriate machine.

This is a fun and irreverant entry for the 5 line poem contest, which works well. Would you by any chance be a bit lazy and thankful for any excuse to escape the chores?

    I actually wanted to mow the lawn. Oh, who am I kidding?
