I can see why this one won. Cheeky picture that is perfect answer to the demands made by someone sitting around waiting to be waited upon. Well done! Regards Dorothy

~ ~ ~ Act I ~ ~ ~

when you're done cleaning
and washing all the dishes
bring me a cold beer

no problem at all;
here's your beer dear. Don't forget
your pillow and blanket

Did the roses come
Were the chocolates okay
What else can I do?

Thanks for your very funny review, it made me laugh. Men can be very insensitive at times and also we tend to forget that we would totally and completely be "LOST" without you ladies around to take care of things. My wife and I have been together for 46 years and I love and appreciate her dearly. Thanks again my friend for making me laugh, that's a wonderful way to start a new day. Take care of yourself and God bless you. Bill

I presume the lady is just checking that he only wants one beer! She's a good little housewife. So thoughtful! Sounds as if the lord and master has got things well under control!
He wishes! Don't think he'll be getting any nooky tonight :)

Thank you my friend for your great review, I appreciate your funny comments. No, I think she meant something totally different with that one "finger". And you're right, looks like a few nights on the couch. Take care mate and have a nice day. Bill

Sounds like what you deserved, indeed, lol! Sad part is that this is so true in many cases. Ugh! Syllable count is right on and you are doing well at the polls. : ) Best of luck to you. I think you have a winner here!

Oh my gosh. I know sign language as well. I liked the blunt humor in this. The picture was the crowning touch. Nice imagery and the tongue in cheek feeling was wonderful. Nicely done.

Very typical. That is like the guy whose wife is sick saying "Don't worry about the dishes, Dear, you can wash them when you get out of the hospital" I like the way this poem was presented and the dry humor. Well done.

Excellent chauvinistic wind-up.

Of course the picture adds real OOMPH, but the words stand alone.

A worthy contender.

Cheers, Ted

Thanks for your review, I appreciate it. I believe that if you can find a picture that really grabs the readers eyes, it's worth more than the words sometimes. Cheers

I agree - especially in these fun 537 thingies, which are basically gags and nothing to do with poetry.

I adopted the same tactics with my entry, and I congratulate you on your win.
