Oh my goodness, oh gosh, there's one thing I fear,
going shopping with my wife, I'd prefer to stay near,
she's got her checklist, and she's determined,
to purchase unnecessary items, it's her obsession.
She'll browse for hours, and I'll become weary,
my feet will hurt and my tolerance dreary,
she'll try on clothes, and request my opinion,
but regardless of my response, it won't be genuine.
Therefore, heed my suggestion,
if you cherish your being
abstain from shopping with your partner,
it will only bring disagreeing.
Something absolutely remarkable does happen when you agree to do each other's shopping.. I have made that discovery. Simply a fantastic verse, Asim.
I like humorous poems...thanks a lot for giving me a happy and cheerful morning...many**************
your poetic expression about your partner made me smile; yes, true you are; sometimes I feel every woman is same; Almighty God made them from the same theme! nice to read you
line 2: 'near' ok. I think 'near home' is implied, away from the store and your wife's buying obsession. But I THINK your marriage is pretty safe....for now. bri : )
stanza 3: I love the 'being/disagreeing' rhyme and meaning. 'Being' here, I'm sure, refers to your 'self', your life, your whole existence
Ok, maybe you don't fear your wife per se [and I never use 'per se', as it is 'foreign' to me in more than one way, ....so my use may NOT be proper here], .... but that you fear being locked in the store after closing?
line 6: maybe 'be dreary'. Asim, your opinion won't be genuine? ! ! Don't tell me that your 'fear' of your wife trumps your natural tendency to be completely honest! ! !
