She said I write Kitsch <br />this love of my High School days <br />I called her a witch. <br /> <br />She only likes rhymes <br />the ones by the old masters, <br />and the old clock chimes. <br /> <br />How can my own spouse <br />forget to be awed by me? <br />I'm man of the house! <br /> <br />It's a Haiku now <br />she has no understanding. <br />I called her a cow. <br /> <br />In the doghouse - ME! <br />and she puts on my muzzle, <br />to chew poetry. <br /> <br />I think women are <br />so besotten with logic <br />that men seek the bar. <br /> <br />For her special day <br />I shall not write a poem <br />hope that is okay.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/haikus-about-a-spouse/
