HOPEFUL

HOPEFUL

–

After a day like today,

I hope we can sleep right away…

We’ll catch up on time

Relaxing reclined,

And dream our cares away.

–

I’ve got a laundry bucket to do

Before it goes “P-U”…

Wife can’t do it

But I’ll get to it

Efforts, it’ll take a phew.

–

When I get back I’m sure the TV

Will be playing loud–wait and see–

Ringing in her ears

Limits what she hears,

For volume she depends upon me!
