My Wife Likes to be Tidy

Poem Artwork


I pile this stuff
Upon my desk
It grows and grows
It's like a pest

I don't know why
It lingers there
My desk has little
Room to spare.

Perhaps it waits
So endlessly
For me to start
A cleanup spree

So there it sits
It will not roam
The "stuff" has made
My desk it's home.


Until my wife
Takes on the stuff
She softly says
Enough's enough

And all that stuff
Gets put away
And order reigns
For one short day

(c) 2004, Henry Lefevre

My kind of poem, my kind of desk. I don't believe an apostrophe is needed here: "My desk it's home."

I always have a messy desk and if it was clean I couldn't find anything. Enjoyed this so much Henry.

I hate pileups too. You are a lucky man in that your wife doesn't pack you up too.
