Just wonderful!!! Sounds like my life. I did get that yard mowed today, only to come inside to dishes, and two loads of laundry! I love this form also. Very appealing!

Thank you. It was fun to try. You'll notice I didn't say WHEN I'd get around in the work inside. lol
-
Ha ha...I got mine done...til tomorrow!
-
Oh, you! Now I'll have to do some housework.
-
Ha ha...sorry...I'll slack off, I'll make Sloppy Joe's and Banana Nut bread instead!!
-
I'll be right over. 8-)

hurry, hurry...or catch the pork roast, mashed potatoes and stuffing tomorrow! Smiles!!!

I definitely know that feeling. It seems like I finally get all my outside work done and then it's time to deal with the inside again. Ugh! It's never-ending! ;) This was such a fun piece to read! Your repeating line works really well and the artwork goes along perfectly! Great work! :)

Thank you, Jenna. I still haven't got busy inside yet. LOL. I didn't say WHEN I'd do it.
Comment from Pearl Edwards
Your repeated line works well in your Monchielle and slots in well with all your verses. It flows easily and your words create a picture of a day outside, before starting inside. Nicely done.
cheers

Yvonne, My Pal -
If you have so much strength,
I wish you'd come see me.
I've lots that you can do!
Although my laundry's done,
I'll save the dust for you.
If you have so much strength,
I'm hungry and can't cook.
Potatoes need to bake;
au gratin if you please,
and then I'd like some cake.
If you have so much strength,
I need to shop for clothes.
I've put on too much weight.
My cravings cause the gain
of all the fat I hate.
If you have so much strength,
why not decide you'll come?
I'm sure that you can drive.
My housework's never done.
I hope you'll soon arrive.
:))) (Thanks for the new form!) (Did I manage it?) Hahahahaha! What FUN your poem is - what FUN it inspired!

Post it tomorrow, then. It deserves to be read.

Really? THANKS!

I liked the repetition of your poem and enjoyed your view very much. Unfortunately it induced me to look around and see many of the same chores need doing here. So thanks for that lol. Thank you for sharing your work.

Hi Yvonne, I loved it. What a wonderful poem with a story within. It doesn't seem to matter which new form of poetry you're writing. You always seem to master it. Wonderful!! All the best. Ulla:)))

I really enjoyed this poem, Yvonne. I love to work in the garden, you can easily see where you've been and get a lot of pleasure doing it. I had to laugh at your last line, lol, 'it's time to start inside'!! LOL. Get to it! Well done my friend. :) Sandra.

I didn't say WHEN I'd get started inside. lol. I like being outdoors, too, and will let the housework go to work in the yard. Thank you for this wonderful review.

You'll notice if didn't say WHEN I'd get to the inside work. lol.
I'm guilty of letting the housework go to be out in the yard. Thank you so much.
Comment from LIJ Red
I have a war going on here on the hill. My crows and jays and cardinals and threshers all hate each other. I believe you hit the Monchielle nail on the head.
I believe if you listened you could hear my grass growing.

I'd love to live where you do. The birds are all vying for food, I bet. I've discovered that crows are very timid and are scared away easily. That's surprising, I think. Thanks for reading this.
Comment from Pantygynt
I have just about given up trying to keep abreast of all those chores and write a tanka a day and, because i was intrigued with this form, I even managed to write and post one of my own. This fits the bill perfectly.

Well, I didn't say WHEN I'd get to the inside work. I'm guilty of letting the housework go to spend time outdoors and on FS. Thanks, Jim.
