Poetry that stirs my soul

I have become so enamored with the
"Bush Poetry"that I have been posting
that I started to wonder if all the
readers of my blog were as interested
as I am in poetry???  
So I have started a new blog
 dedicated to poetry
please call in and have a look, if it
isn't your cup of tea just pop back here
for all the usual fun things.
The first 8 poems at the new site are ones
I've already posted here, I headed them all
"Poetry that stirs my soul" todays new entry
is "The joys of farmin'."
Hope you enjoy your time on both sites.


Just a quick entry here, (I've spent bloody
hours on the other one today) these snippets
are to prove that men and women DON'T think
alike.


"IT'S A GUY THING">

Translated: "There is no rational
thought
pattern connected with it,
and you
have no
chance at all of making
it logical." 

"CAN I HELP WITH DINNER?" 

Translated: "Why isn't it already
on the
table?" 

"UH HUH," "SURE, HONEY," OR "YES, DEAR" 

Translated:
Absolutely nothing. It's a
conditioned response. 

"IT WOULD TAKE TOO LONG TO EXPLAIN" 

Translated:
"I have no idea how it works." 

"TAKE A BREAK, HONEY. YOU'RE WORKING TOO HARD." 

Translated: "I can't hear the game over the
vacuum cleaner." 

"THAT'S INTERESTING, DEAR." 

Translated: "Are you still talking?" 

"YOU KNOW HOW BAD MY MEMORY IS." 

Translated: "I remember the theme song
to 'F Troop,' the address of the first girl
I ever kissed and the vehicle identification
numbers of every car I've ever owned...
but I forgot your birthday." 

"DON'T FUSS, I JUST CUT MYSELF. IT'S NO BIG DEAL." 

Translated:
"I have actually severed a
limb but will bleed to death before I
admit that I'm hurt." 

"HEY, I'VE GOT MY REASONS FOR WHAT I'M DOING." 

Translated: "And I sure hope I think of
some pretty soon." 

"I CAN'T FIND IT."

Translated: "It didn't fall into my
outstretched hands, so I'm completely
clueless." 

"WHAT DID I DO THIS TIME?" 

Translated:
"What did you catch me at?" 

"I'M NOT LOST. I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE WE ARE." 

Translated: "No one will ever see us
alive again." 

"WE SHARE THE HOUSEWORK." 

Translated: "I make the messes;
she cleans them up."
