"A" is for Annoying!

Annoyances of mine:

• After I just wiped the counters, a spill or crumbs - AH!
• Announcements at the grocery store
• Aftertastes
• Apple seed casings left on the pieces
• Attitude from children or cats
• Any clothes or items left lying around
• Abrasive language
• Attacks on my less than adequate housekeeping abilities, how dare you!
• Always being late
• Advertisements
• Acne
• Aging
• Aches and pains that keep popping up
• Arm flab
• Ants
• Arguing
• Add yours!

And we're off!

Why did she have to go?

I wish that she had stayed.

I miss my friend of old,

Growing farther every day.

I can text or call or write

Facebook, email, twitter?

It’s not the same as hugging

It’s not like being with her.

After months of planning,

The miles slip away.

I’m finally at her doorstop

We don’t know what to say.

The kids go off to Xbox,

Or find some kind of trouble.

We talk about our hubbies,

How the gas prices doubled.

How is this and so-in-so?

How much the kids have grown!

Remember good old what’s his name?

And just as time has flown,

We pick up where we once left off

Our secret truths reveal

And share the understanding

That only we can feel.

PAD Day 1: "What got you here"

April Fool!

Gotcha! - no post!

Wanna tell me your favorite April Fool's gag?

PS - this is not my "A" post or my 1st poem, how lame would that be?
