Buster Brown

feeling silly-ever have one of these days?

Buster Brown barely built his bed

-by hitting the hammer upside his head.

His screwdriver sideways, now stuck in the screw

wishing Wally was here-he’d know what to do.

 

But, Buster banged, screwed and he bled

foolishly following what the instructions said.

 

Finally finished-all full of pride

he hopped on the bed to go for a ride.

He fumbled and tumbled-bruises galore

mumbling and moaning he couldn’t take anymore.

 

 

Buster packed up his stuff and returned to the store

proudly proclaiming he’d sleep on the floor!

I love this April, ive read before and felt the humor, while laughing at myself (I can totally relate, so hopeless with flat packs;) but this time I reread wondering what you had changed and got to hear your humor in the way it was said :)

you have so many different styles and im yet to find fault in a single one...

I should feel frustrated! but im simply left inspired

thank you April for sharing :)

[AprilRN1210]

You are too sweet, thank you. Just wanted to express the playfulness in which it was written. I am glad that you came back to check it out, and that you enjoyed it... ((Hugs))

And that is why men never read instructions, we are better off figuring it out ourselves. LOL

That was a really cute and fun poem.

Thanks Dale, I am glad you enjoyed it.. Those dang instructions are always so confusing to me:(

[Troy Henson]

hahaha classic!

Reminds me of all the times ive been a self proclaimed handy man and there are always plenty of these funny moments occurring.
This was quite refreshing to read April. A great move away from the life stories we are always telling. This one brings that mile to my face that only arises occasionally these days so for that I thank you and well done:)

Regards
Troy

Thank you, Troy! It is fun to take a moment and be silly. Life is hard enough, sometimes we just need a laugh. I'm glad I could bring a smile to your day:)

[AprilRN1210]

Yes, this was inspired by my mishaps of trying to fix something around the house... I SUCK as a handyman:(

Yeah I do agree. I know I spend a lot of time writing about me, myself and I and its good sometimes just to let go.
