Yes, Dear! Love your humor; but gotta tell you the truth,
Us Ladies say the same thing about you guys...anyone out there?
So. Now I know why Neil Armstrong really went to the moon. More dangerous here than there? :)
"...even when you're sure she's wrong, it will turn out she's right." My hubby used to say the same thing about himself!
" There's always Aussie beer" Must be pretty great stuff.

Comment from Mary Wakeford
Oh my goodness, Bob, I'm here to return a review and I chose this one to get you ever closer to the 'recognized' ribbon. I howled at the humour within and the hilarity of the various images you have conjured up...this one might possibly be a favourite, but there are truly so many...
And if one day you find out
She has finally got it wrong
Might be best to take a trip
To the moon like Neil Armstrong
A bit of fun in your subtitle should be changed to a whole lot of fun!!

A funny poem, Bob, and so true. But I've met your lovely bride. This couldn't be her you are caterwauling about! LOL, give here my best. She took good care of you while you were recuperating. You still in good health?

Jay, you are so right. She is very special. And she did look after me wonderfully well.
Actually she inspired the poem. The grandkids love her to death but they also know not to push Nan.
Thanks for the nice reply

I really enjoyed the flow of your poem, and I'm still laughing it's hilarious! And one quick note, I concur "Yes Dear" will always work. Excellent! Best wishes.

Thank you for reading and reviewing my thought for the week. My wife does all the thinking around here, I'm allowed fifteen minutes every Friday. Just joking.
Delighted to know you enjoyed it

Comment from winnona
Very well written poem. I enjoyed reading it. The only thing I would suggest is a darker word color and maybe a shade darker yellow. It is just a little too bright and the words hard to read. Otherwise very well done!

Among other things I failed colour co-ordination at school. When you wrote 'a little too bright' I thought you were referring to my intellect!!!
-
No. I am so sorry I meant the color background and color of your words. They made it hard for me to read it. I would never have made any comment to offend you. I am sorry that I wasn't clearer.

I took no offence. Your comment was spot on.
Comment from Mastery
Hi, Bob. You sure have this right. Yes dear is the standard for keeping the homefires burning, isn't it? LOL
Even when they are dead wrong, best let them think they are right.
This sums it up in your words here:
"Try and soothe her wounded pride
But do it with gentle care>"
Bravo! Good poetry, Bob (and fun) Bob

Sounds like our wives may be related. Thank you as always for taking the time to read and review my poem. And also for the lovely comment you wrote in response to my review of your last posting

Comment from royowen
Sounds like discretion is the best part of valour, I think women like to think the best of their men, and allow themselves to allow it. Men are very good at telling women what they want to hear! Love this poem Bob, you've done extra well, with some good rhyme, rhythm. It's in abcb with a smooth, readable narrative, well done, blessings, Roy

I think cowardice is more appropriate than valour.
Thank you for taking the time to read and review, Roy

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written philosophy poem. It seems that someone learned the lesson for a happy marriage very well. My house rule is; the mother of this house is always right, and if she is wrong, she is still right.

My wife went to the same school. Glad you enjoyed it. I would however call it survival rather than philosophical.
Love how your pencil writes the little message.
Comment from Brett Matthew West
The key to the happiest relationship is always "Yes dear" no matter what the situation may be.
Poem depicts this them well and to the point.
