Damn my house in such a tip,
Forgot my "resolutions", have let them slip.
Todays excuse, getting sleep,
House is quiet, not a peep.
Shut eye was a resolution,
Easy to do, no time for execution.
Some things, have to give,
A messy house, I'm sure you'll forgive.
Luckily, there's always tomorrow,
Maybe a maid, I could borrow.
Meanwhile, I'm off to bed,
With one resolution, well ahead.

Good night, or day.
Have a good rest.
Yay! A REAL poem! :) I likey.
I'm all for sleep, any day, any way.
My granddaddy always said to spend time with the kids, the house would keep. Wonder what excuse I can use now that the kids have flown out of the nest? LOL
Oh, I need a nap too. This was the perfect poem. I wouldn't mind having a maid as well.
I believe napping was on the list of resolutions, wasn't it?
Oh, sleep has to trump a clean house. Easily!
That's great! Hear you on the resolutions, oops! Hope you had a great rest!! :)
Very cool. I love your poem! May I borrow it as my new mantra?
My house is a mess too and it's lazy Sunday.. it'll have to wait till tomorrow or another day.

I never turn down a nice nap! I'm blogging about a messy house today too :D
Well deserved rest is always a good reason to not do chores - I'm the opposite - too many chores and not much wink eye!
Enjoy your sleep.
I need 8 hours or else I'm a total crank.
It's been waaaay too long since I've been here. After a hiatis, I knew I had to make sure to visit. I missed your poems and this one is spot on. Spot on.
