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!
MY APOLOGY FOR THIS “POEM”

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!!
