Magic Wand


If only I had a wee little magic wand...
I would swish and sway it around
With infinite style and great aplomb
If only I had a magic wand.

Aba..r.a.c.a..d.a..., and ofcourse it would
Dust the shelves and clean the room
The kitchen sink, the carpet and the loo,
As I drift into a corner, curled with my book.

Meals on the table, Mr. Wand,  if you please,
Finish the washing and a break after, is fine.
Piping hot flavoured tea and chips before nine
For I  need to wind up this so called poetic piece.




P.S. Sorry to trouble my (if any) readers with this pathetic attempt. Have willed to put in something every Thursday, so thought mebe poetry is easier than 'prose'! :)

What's that disclaimer all abt, girl? Good that you've set yourself a Thursday deadline.
The poem is one which will resonate with all women, esp. the ones struggling without domestic help. Need i say more ;)
