The Groomer

I was so excited for this today!!  It is time for Mama Kat’s Writers Workshop!

Pick a prompt from her list and write!  This week I picked….Write a poem about a time someone made you smile.

My Hairy Legs by Lynnie

It had been so very long,

Since I had shaved my leg hair.

It took about two hours,

But the OB I thought I’d spare.

So I go to my Dr. appointment,

Eager to get it over.

And while my legs are up in stirrups,

On the cell phone rings my lover.

He says, “Not to be a bother,

But our back door did you lock?”

I say, “I am lying here half naked,

And I wish I brought some socks.”

He says, “But honey I am worried….

Into our house someone did break!”

I say, “Are you kidding me dear baby….

Holy heck what did they take?!”

He says, “Don’t worry your big prego belly,

The one I love to rub.

They didn’t take one single thing….

They just groomed a dog in our tub!”

This is just a snippet of what it is like to live with this man……and yes, he is being pushed in a zoo stroller by my daughter.

Love you baby!
