Listen Up!

A secret about us ladies…

Listen up, you too cool dudes!

Pay attention, ya “totally hoopy froods!”

I’ve got a secret I’m a waitin’ to tell…

But, some ladies don’t know… s’I ain’t gon' yell!

You opine and moan… you don’t understand us.

Hang about! There’s no need for such fuss!

The plain truth… I’m tellin’ ya true…

We really don’t understand you!

That’s not the secret I wanna share…

I don’t know… ya might not even care…

Still, here’s why she can’t help you understand her…

It’s silly but true… I think you’ll concur…

Not jokin’ when I say this… seriously, brother!

We ladies really don’t understand each other!

Great light heartedness in this writing, and in a way quite the arrival really. Trying to let us know that is not so much of a question of gender understanding but more of human beings understanding each other and the moment, only logical I guess when we are told that if us, as males do not understand the female counterpart, amongst each other, the same appears to be.

Oh, boy we are doomed then.

Thankyou

The research may never lead to full discovery… but, ahhhhh… what delightful experiments! :D

Thank you.

Haha that's great and yes maybe we struggle to follow your thinking but if you girls can't work it out then what hope is there for us lowly men :)

[MomzillaNC]

IKR?! Y'all haven't been all that forthcoming with illuminating advice of your gender either. Frankly, I think we're all blind and deaf, leading the blind and deaf!

Truer words have never spoken or written, then these ones. This, coming from someone, who has walked both sides of the divide. Thank you, for humorous way, you deliver this poem. I needed this, today.

[MomzillaNC]

Thank you. I hope it made you smile.

Big time, Momzilla.
