DAY 7
Love Her Way
chained to a kitchen sink
daydreaming
the lonely domestic goddess
knows that one day
her shining knight
will come for her
he -
armed with tea towels and oven mits
a brilliant sense of mad humour
great cookery and literary skills
genius at car and house maintenance
and most importantly
can strum her guitar so beautifully
that every day is a gift of sunflowers
will appear magically at her door
to join her in a life of domestic drudgery
the domestic goddess
is drowning in soap suds
waiting for sunflowers

Brilliant! I love the humor -- and have felt the frustration too.

LOL! As long as the guitar is strummed right and regular, all is well.
