Sometimes in a man's life something enters
Most women would say sense
Sense of cooking washing cleaning
Being around when needed

Sometimes in a woman's life something enters
Windows need painting
Door needs fixing
My car needs a wash
Being around when needed

Sometimes in a man's life you just get up
Most of what you hear makes no sense
You cant choose a meal you like
You cant cook a meal you like

Sometimes in a woman's life you just get up
I ache he smells
I keep doing meals for him
Why wont he eat them

Sometimes in a man's life life and life creep up
Music no-one knows in his own world
Cant hear me, have to go upstairs
Isn't doing what's needed

Sometimes in a woman's life have I got to remind again
I need a man who can talk to the respectable neighbours
Not the kids on the street
Doesn't he know

Sometimes you exist
Sometimes you live
Sometimes you talk
Sometimes

You wonder

About all

Hey Dave

You have given us much food for thought with your well written words.  I hope all is well with you.

Take care.......Sue

There was a challenge some time back
in prose,
to write from the opposite point of gender...
and it would be a good challenge to revive,
just to see how some of us have grown.

Good job, Dave.

For all the differences opposites still attract - 'tis the law of nature.  Good write.

But into my heart
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul

It's interesting the similarities of our thoughts.
Sometimes I choose to exist...
Sometimes I choose to live.

yes very good write~
choosing to just exsist or to really live~
a thought  for me to wise up on
survival for life sometimes weakens the will and makes you wonder if the fight was worth it, just to exsist, you get so tired, you dont get past that goal.
thanks for sharing

My spirit will rise
above the sea~
There will be no drowning
of my soul or me~
