My bright white cotton neatly pressed
I get up early to get dressed
To crack the morning bubbling on
I wish my coffee could take long
The time of day is slowly passing
Each taste and smell is ever lasting
I try to get the work all done
Then there’s time just for fun
Alas the parchment awaiting me
Open for all my staff to see
I pick it up and shout it loud
To the willing, waiting, wanting crowd
Off I go for my afternoon rest
Staying awake shall be my test
Sunset on my brown brick road
Knowing I can take the load
I know my timing won’t be out
Since I know what it’s all about
I hope the service will go fast
The chocolate ending will be last
So as I make my minty finish
I wont forget to order spinach
For tomorrow brings a brand new day
With food and love I both will play

VERY COOL
Hi babe. I lovely read. I enjoyed it not only because I can relate so well but also because it reads so nicely. One typo though in line 11 "load" should be "loud" otherwise the meaning gets a little distorted and the rhyme is gone where the rhyme throughout the whole poem is great. Very Well done... Keep it up
Luv
Heh

hey thats not fair, how come you get play around with love all day and i get stuck with this stupid computer, you can keep the spinach. Ncie poem though, I felt that it had a very staedy rhythm, like you were quite calm and relaxed when you wrote it. the meter of your lines is pretty good but there are one or two places that could do with a touch up, like line 8 which seems a bit short.
thanks for the read daiz, i'll catch you soon.
