What would I do without him?

Question

Married to a Red-Neck has advantages!

“Sweetie, I need your help."

(Groan, putting down my paint brush.)

“Hokey, dokey…here I am…what help?”

“Hold this railroad tie steady, please.”

“Why?”

“Because I need you to steady it while I cut it!”

“We’re laying tracks?”

“Don’t be a smart…”

(I just thought to inject some humor into the situation…sheesh!}

“I’ll bite. For what use?” (My arms are getting a bit tired here.)

“Going to lay them under the trash can.”

“Oh! Joy! So that it’s high enough I don’t have to climb on a

stone to reach over the fence?”

“Just so!”

(Reaching across to place a soft kiss on the sweated brow.)

“Woman…get back to holding the tie!”

“Yes, Sir!” (You old sweetie…ice cream on the deck will

await you!)

I love dialogue poems.  This one is so humo(u)rous. It brought back many memories. At least, he didn't curse and swear!!

Answer 7

Oh, wow - you're back.  I love these exchanges - it's just as if I'm a neighbour eaves-dropping behind the fence.  I've just gone back inside to say to my dear one 'Do you know, I love that lady next-door.  Pretends to be crotchety, but I know better'

Love it , love it, love it.
