I was maid for loving you.
The maid’s got her work
cut out for her today
When she sees this mess
‘I quit,’ she’ll likely say.
♥
The T.V is on
and nobody cares
There’s mud on the sofa
shoes left on the stairs.
♥
Lego litters the hallway
There’s crumbs on the floor
And who put fingerprints
all over the door?
♥
Three loads of washing
and dinner to prepare
How does she do this?
It’s almost unfair.
♥
Wet and soggy towels
piled in a heap.
Where’s the pet frog?
Did I just see something leap?
♥
Crayon on the ceiling
Shampoo on the tile
Is it really that hard
to wipe them once in a while?
♥
Toothpaste on the mirror
Dishes in the sink
Cornflake encrusted bowls
I’m almost on the brink!
♥
Where’s she gone?
This place is a mess
What’s stuck on the table
is anybody’s guess.
♥
These floors need doing
before the kids get back.
It’s pretty clear then
I’ll have to give her the sack.
♥
Is it her day off?
Where can she be?
Oh, I plum forgot
The maid is me!
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Maid with love.
Free Little Words 
Brilliant!!
I’ll take that compliment, thank you, as I did actually write this one myself for a change.
It seemed effortless which shows it was great!!
You’re too kind.
It seemed effortless only because I was without kiddies today. 🙂
Hehe our greatest work is accomplished in these times!!
Yes, it is!
Love it! And I can relate, but I need an outfit like that!
You’d probably wear it well. My legs are too short to pull it off well.
first thought – Va Va Vavoom! (Sorry, it’s the outfit) Secondly, this is an absolutely awesome piece of writing. I love this poem! I cannot wait to read what you write next:)
The poem was easy with no distractions. The outfit was a little snug though! 😉
I do like poetry, honest. Unless it rhymes though I haven’t a clue. Maybe I’ve hung around kids and their picture books too long.
Are you for hire?!? 🙂 Perfection…sheer perfection! Wonderful poem! xoxo
It’s amazing how no kids in the house allows for creativity. Thank you for your kind words as always.
I’m not currently taking on any new roles. 🙂
I’m bummed…no maid for Kira! lol 🙂
Grrrr!!! Some of your finest yet. Your ability to let it flow seems it is coming with more ease, or maybe that was the day off from all your boys. Nice fishnets!!!
Ok the maid has to go then! Can’t have you perving at the hired help. 🙂
The brain did enjoy a break from the constant activity of the boys.
Hilarious and so true. I know I’m focusing on the wrong thing, but that first picture looks oddly familiar. I just can’t place it.
She is captivating. Not sure why she’s familiar but please let me know if you find out.
I looked through my DVD’s. She’s the maid from an old Tim Curry movie called ‘Clue’. It was based on the board game and was hilarious.
I’m glad you solved the mystery. I’m not sure whether I’ve seen that movie. Might go check it out.
It’s great. Tim Curry and Madeline Khan are in it. Both are hilarious.
Well written!
You are too kind!
This one made me laugh so hard! 🙂
It’s so true and the way it is written is just lovely!
