Someday, But Not Too Soon

I posted this on my 16 yr old daughters bedroom wall before she came home from school

Someday, but not too soon,
You’ll be someone’s wife with your very own room.
So, take the time and make your bed, pick up your clothes before you wed.
Prepare your life with such sites unseen
wean yourself into a daily routine.
Your future is hazy, but not if your lazy.
This monstrosity would drive any man crazy!
It is quite simple to follow your trail
If you try it on and then decide not to wear
Hang it up and show someone you care!
If you collect some trash
and scatter it about, you’ll lose your man without a doubt!
Infatuations turn sour for sure in time
especially when living in this utter slime!
Then there are girls who avoid the I do’s
Live on their own or with who knows who?
But whoever your with , no matter who or alone
There’s a lot to be said for a beautiful home!
Any being you always have a answer for things
When you claim you’ll make enough $, with life’s songs to sing
I suggest you try and do what we do
Be prompt, be organized and pay what’s due.
For success and all the harvest it bestows
Only comes to those that reap exactly what sows
By starting out life with a neat, and clean, and tidy room of leisure
Will only make your life that much easier!


Your Mom
