I Don’t Get It

I just don’t get it!
Why I should lay in bed,
While bursting ideas and thoughts
Try to escape my head.

I have need to write,
Right to need,
Sometimes more than a warm body
And satellite T.V.

Are you intimidated
By interests I have
Focused beyond
Ourselves?


Perspective #2:

You’ve always been
A patient gem,
Giving of your best,
Sooo,  I guess its time to
Compromise.  
  
Goodnight.
(But I’ll slip my pen in bed!)

Sadie, this is cute. Well, the ending is, especially. LOL
The first part had me thinking how can he do her
like that. LOL It was short, but said a lot.

Ethel,

   Thanks for your sweet response.  Really and truly, "I have it made in the shade"--I just get a little huffy once in a while!
We just come from different backgrounds and different levels of appreciation, but usually, all is well.   Thanks for your caring comment.

smile.

My husband used to rage about my passion for poetry, and said once he would get rid of my computer if he had to--

"Fine." I smiled. "I don't really need the computer to write--I'll just carve my words out on your legs at night."



(I don't think he knew I was joking--I am still here.)

Thanks for the smile Sadie.

passing shadows,
   Glad you stopped in and commented.   I always enjoy hearing from you.  I'm eager to catch up by reading some of your poetry.  I'll catch you at your post!  Happy New Year to you!
                          Sadelite

Serenitiy,
   No, thank you for the smile!  I love it!
Poetry is such a part of you that you even think evil thoughts in rhyme! (Go back and re-read your comment!)    
   On a more serious note, I'm glad you still have the computer and your husband still has his legs!  Nice compromise.
                     Sadie

midnitesun,
      Thanks for checking in.  I'll keep my pen handy, if you promise to keep yours handy!   Happy writing to you.

Paul,
      You couldn't have flattered me more.  I enjoy when someone can get a smirk out of my work.   Thank you very much.
