MY APOLOGY FOR THIS “POEM”

I WAS COMPELLED TO FOLLOW THE PROMPT

“SAY NO”

     From his mouth did blow

     Tried to make folks “Ho, ho, ho”

     Or get attention with “Yo, yo, yo”

     His wife said “No, no, no”

     This stopped not Joe

     With him was go, go, go

     Wife said it reached a low, low, low

     Added again “No, no, no”

     Till the fields for dough

     A good mow, mow, mow

     With seeds to sow, sow, sow

     Wife: “What do you know, know, know?”

     He was reaching an all-time low

     Everyone his foe, foe, foe

     Just sow with hoe, hoe, hoe

     To take his wife in tow, tow, tow

     I don’t know

     Why say “no”?

     Name is Joe

     Go, go, go!

    Reminds me of the current phrase, “What part of No! don’t you understand?
    Nicely done!

    I don’t think you need to apologize! Poems are a great way to express frustrations! It kind of reminded me of my early reading adventures with Dick and Jane and Sally!!
