Odd socks

Oh for the Rubik’s colours to line up
Folded laundry |  kids ate their vegetables |  floor swept |
work project completed | Christmas presents wrapped
One day all will be in order

Until                  a
         grubby                    handed              
                                   child
                                                                                        mixes it all up
Life is
odd socks

                   Life is
“Where, oh where did `I put my work laptop?  I literally have to have it for my presentation today.  Paige, why is there yogurt on my laptop?  Who has seen the charger?  It was right here ten minutes ago”.

                                     Life is
“Does anyone know how to flush the toilet?”

But all of us, swan pedalling towards the finish line, (sorry, I meant finish wine), wouldn’t have it any other way.

For a perfectly arranged Rubik’s pyramid is boring.

                   Hold on: who smeared Nutella on the Rubik’s pyramid?
                  
                           Anyone?
