I think this is cute. I could understand the frustration of the wife with her husband. I know my husband gets a little frustrated with me, because I have to say everything like it is a story. This flows very well. It is an easy read to follow. The characters are easily recognizable in the story. Well done.

HAHAHAHA. I have that same issue with MY husband, SLMorrical. He's a man of few words, but he understands that that will NEVER be said of me!
Thanks for the fun review. I loved it. xo
Comment from Janice Canerdy
This is so cute and funny! Waxing poetic is wonderful--when we're writing a
poem, but it might not be the best means of expression for everyday situations.
LOL!

A window into the world of the creative versus the pragmatists.
Thanks for your nice review, Janice. xo
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written short flash fiction of the poet husband telling you he went to buy some milk in a poem. It is still better than the husband telling you he goes out to buy cigarettes and never comes back. Lol.

Thank you. I've been happy that the poets on here have found it funny. We're all able to see ourselves here to a degree and laugh.

Hilarious and a spark of truth in it, too! Sometimes we need to emerge from the fantasy world of our creations for long enough to attend to the mundane!

Exactly, tfawcus!! You totally get me here! Thank you for this perfect review. xo
Comment from Gloria ....
HAHA, this is so funny and how tedious the sometimes overly dramatic poet can be to a spouse who just wants a pure and simple note, not that one that has to be pondered over for hours.
Most entertaining Rachelle. :)

Comment from pome lover
egad! I think Christie should text him at the store: "Dear Disillusioned, whilst perusing the dairy products, please choose a cheese to go in your trap....Oh, and don't forget the Ipecac." Ha!
Good post. I hope you write some more of these.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. You're hysterical!! Someone else suggested I make this a running scene. Maybe I WILL give that some thought, after all. Hey! Maybe we should make this into a contest? That could be a really fun one. What's your opinion on that?
-
I agree. give it a shot.

Alright! I'll get on that! Thanks for the encouragement. xo
-
FUN!
-
I hope you'll enter it, though!! That would seem fair, since you were kind of my enabler here and in semi-collusion.
-
you bet
-
Awesome!!!
-
Could I count on you to help me with the wording of it?
-
sure! have been gone tonight. sorry to be so late getting back to you.
-
No, no, not at all. Your timing is actually perfect because I'm just seeing this now, myself. I'm excited for this! xo
Comment from Debbie Pope
Good grief, Rachelle, this is so creative. It's perfect for flash fiction, but I don't see it in a contest. You really had me going there with the "disillusionment." Your conclusion was totally unexpected. And, you even manage to work in a good characterization of the husband.
Nice job, Rachelle.

Thank you, Debbie. Nope, no contest for this one (I already have one enrolled in the next Dribble); it's just for pure, unadulterated fun. I'm glad you found it as such. Delightful review, as always. xo

Comment from LaRosa
It appears to be two separate voices speaking. Then at the end, I figure it out...hubby goes for milk and must poeticise (is that a word?) and she finds it NOT humorous. Loved it.
The only thing I found was the lack of an opening capital letter and a period at the end of the first stanza/paragraph. Then I think, is that not another humorous tactic to make me think in poetic mind?
