I just love this clever and funny poem. It shows great creativity and the meter and rhymes are so nicely done too. I enjoyed everything about it and can sort of relate to the theme. I find it difficult to clean my office because the writing beckons me every time I'm in there, so the cleaning has to wait.

Straighten Up?
Hello my friend
I think everyone can relate with your poem. I don't mind a little mess but I can't stand a cluttered house. My grandson is two so we have to put up with his toys. Your poem is funny and well written.

thanks!
Actually embarrassed myself into cleaning off my desk and my office up yesterday.
Had company over for supper. :)
Thanks again!

This is an understandable mess. When writing and inspiration is either there, or you're working hard to get it, this is the aftermath of such a storm. I like it and the message conveyed. Thanks for sharing this inspirational and well written work. Well done!

Thanks, Jeffrey.
Actually, I embarrassed myself into cleaning it up yesterday as I had company for supper! Now, if it will just stay this way.
Thanks for reading and for your nice comments.

You are so right that folks are either messy or not. Even though I can be messy at times, I know exactly where everything is when I need it. Well done!

This is a cute poem about your office being a mess. Funny that your house
is neat. I like your two lines....................... I walk into the room and think, this really is disgraceful. Anybody else's house, I'd think, Oh, how distasteful!

This poem sounds like this person was in a real mess. He should have shaped up. Excellent work! No grammatical errors. Thanks for sharing! Good luck in the contest!

I really liked this poem. It was very cute and kind of funny, and it also reminds me of how I am when I'm really into writing something. I hope you will keep up your great poetic work on this site.

well, bless your heart, and thank you very much. You bet, I will be right here with my rhymes. I spend way too much time here, but it's a fun place to be and I love it.
Thanks aagain.
Comment from Kenneth Gagne
If the intent is to indicate that organized and surprised have an extra syllable, you don't need the hyphen, and the accent should be grave: organizèd / surprisèd.
I like your use of rhyme and how the office, like the writing that takes place there, is messy.

Comment from January L'Angelle
This is a very well written and clever "What a mess" poem. I like your rhymes and the way you told your story. The poem was fun and gave me a good chuckle. I could see how a home would be messy and the office really neat. The photo goes great too. Well done! -January L.

well mine is the other way around - I do keep a neat house, as I live alone and was an interior designer, but...office - a different story. I just have fun there.
Thanks for your very nice review.

I'm backwards... My office has to be in order or I'll go nuts. My house isn't too messy but compared to my immaculate office it's quite different. LOL
