This is very cute what you have penned for the care givers so they won't throw anything else away that belong to your wife. Very cute wording and very cute imagery from the picture. Blessings, Teri

Comment from Sasha
I am so sorry it took me so long to get to this but my recuperation has been far slower than I anticipated. This is a clever and well written poem that put a smile on my face.

Hi, Sankey.
This is a fun way of reminding Louise's caregivers not to throw stuff away before asking:
Please let us know
Before you throw.
There's nothing worse than losing something useful that cannot be easily replaced.

I needed some humor! Thanks for making light of one of the episodes with Louise's carers. I enjoyed your rhymed couplet and the photograph. Smiles- Joan

Yeah Charlie Lucas picked up on the Couplet too thanks Joan. Maybe I am getting there with the poetic forms, ha. The lady was funny last night. After i showed her the sign she was checking if we wanted a soup can chucked during the washing up hehe. She is a bit of a character. One of the few carers does not mind working at night to look after Louise.
-
I am glad you have an especially kind carer for Louise's nightly rounds. Keep up your poetic forms- Joan

Thnks Joan. I have another sign I use for the taps on my vanity in my bathroom. The taps have special washers that do NOT like being turned off "to death" just turned off till water stops. I have to warn the cleaners, SHower taps are ok hehe.

Oh my!!!! It's sad that this is what you need to do. I can understand the frustration and you handled it in a very numerous way. Good for you. You are such a dear.

Aw thanks Sis. Good hearing from you. The Carer is a good friend too. I know because of the situ it is conflict of interest to be freinds but she is a real character. After I put this up She checked if we wanted the soup can when she washed up last night hehe.

Two lines are a couplet. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very interesting read. There is very good imagery and descriptive scheme.

I think you could have unconsciously created a work of art Geoff. I just watched a show about the heist of "the Mona Lisa", they resulted in it being 2.4 Billion dollars today, maybe you can retire rich. Well done my friend, blessings, Roy

Haha Bro. This lady is a real character after I put this up she asked about chucking a soup can when she was washing up hehe. Pray for us hoping to challenge her about her need of a saviour soon.

Will do Bro.
Comment from AnnieDawn
Very cute. It is a bit of trouble when someone throws out something still needed. Good way to handle it though. I like the note on the wall. It will probably save you something else in the future.

Yeah Sis, after I put this up the carer (a bit of a card her self...funny), was asking last night about chucking a soup tin during the washing up hehe. Pray, we plan on challenging her about her need of salvation real soon. Lovely lady.
Comment from Brett Matthew West
Sometimes the best laid plan of mice and men should not occur.
The carer should have asked you prior to tossing the cap if you wanted it or not.
Touch of humor thrown into this well written poem for good measure.

Thanks, mate. Appreciate the review. Actually, she was here again tonight and doing the washing up, she is a bit of a character and asked if we wanted to keep the soup tin hehe.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem and a good notification. When there are many people around it is good to put some ground rule notices on so thatvyhere cannot be any misunderstandings.

Yeah I have another one I often forget to add in my bathroom. The taps on the vanity bowl have special washers and must NOT be turned off tight! So I have to tell them just turn them off till water stops. Trouble is I often forget to tell them in time Sigh! Thanks for the great response.
