Poem Artwork

Once a rainy day pushed some guests
Stay under my roof in the countryside. . .
Those guys loved to eat potatoes;
They loved it so much that my wife
Said to me, rubbing her hands,
'See, our potatoes are to their taste;
Let's boil them some more, my man!
Let them eat it all. Let's buy a new home!'
Such a silly woman she was,
Changing the old fertilized farm ground
For a not much in lived house
In the megacity's noisy suburb.

You remind me of why I don't live in the city. I did for a short while. 'So noisey...cars, sirens, all sorts of noses and absurd night time horribleness. Stay in the burbs or woodlands as long as we still have them! 'Enjoyed. You struck a nerve, Alexander!

Love ya!

I feel your pain. My suburbs have trains, planes, and automobiles. Like the movie but in a horror version. I don't if Long Island is even considered a suburb anymore.

I'm not sure what potatoes have to do with this except somehow selling them gained enough to abandon the countryside for the noisy suburb.

I'm with John. Trading the country place for one in the suburbs is generally a big mistake.

Next time that happens, just grab a bar of soap, and take a shower. You'd be surprised at what the rain can wash away.

Perhaps your wife enjoys tbe company of friends. Sometimes it is good to be sociable.

Wouldn't change a country-style house for a "noisy suburb" even for my wife.
