Thanks Hon, Happy Val-en-tines !

Poetry challenge: Valentines poem.

.

 

We live in a fourteen foot (the width) mobile home

and as much as I love and prefer this place

over our previous dwelling’s,

a three story townhouse and a two story house,

there is only so much usable wall space per room.

 

---

 

And so, I was telling my husband how I

noticed he was taking up more floor

space in our master bedroom than myself –

with his dresser, laundry basket and an exercise apparatus.

The queen sized bed on my end

aligns with the double door mirrored closet;

allotting only enough room, in-between,

for a small night stand and my slippers.

 

---

 

As with his response to my inquiry,

my husband emphasis’s prosaically, on repeat,

that he can and will allow up to at-least

six more inches of space on my side of the bed!
