"Ordeal"

Writing can be an ordeal

Sometimes I just want to squeal

The house phone is ringing

What is it bringing?

My cell phone is calling

By now I am bawling

The dog is barking

Too long on her outing

My expresso is blurping

No time for slurping

Skype beeped my screen

What will that mean?

Feral cats are yowling

By now I am scowling

A squirrels in the wall

Having a ball

Twelve wild turkeys just came

The dogs back out for the game

Better get a picture

Of this fun mixture

Laundry is near

Waiting for me I fear

The cabin is dusty

My sweeper is musty

It's all a mess

I am in distress

It's a fight to write

Try as I might

A wasp just walked across my keys

Enough please

I will wait for another day

When everything will be ok

Peace and quiet will prevail

For this writer to tell her tale
