Who needs a mop?
I know that I don't.
I know that I don't.
I tell my children to stop,
They're sassy and say, "I won't".
On my hands and knees I scrub my floors daily.
Should I actually throw my mop away?--Maybe.
Sometimes I feel like I am going crazy.
I spend all my days cleaning.
No longer do I ever feel lazy.
So exhausted, I find myself leaning,
Against walls to hold me up.
Do I love motherhood? most of the time--Yup!
This poem is so silly!
I am exhausted today.
Eliza has been so sick, Really!
I do all this work without getting paid.
Even when I am so tired,
My kids are still totally wired. . .
It's a good thing I love them!
Perhaps I should have entitled this,
"The exhausted mother with sick kids and a messy house". . .
no, that is too long.

I hope everyone else is feeling and doing well!
Have a great day.

This is a BEAUTIFUL poem. Very well done, my dear.
ReplyDeleteYesterday Alex said, "You're a Play at Home Mom." He was teasing, but I was inclined to agree on some days.
I don't know how you survive your energetic boys. I'm glad B is going for soccer.
I like the sentiment of your poem. I hear Eliza's been spending time at the hospital. Sorry to hear that. I hope everyone is on the mend real soon!
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling! We've been having that kind of month here too! Hopefully you'll find time to get some rest and have another go at it tomorrow. good luck!
