Apologies to Monday

I think I upset her...

Hey Monday, are you serious?

You’re no one’s favorite day;

you only make it worse

when you show up wearing grey.

 

Why can’t you be like Friday was,

dressed in her finest blue?

No wonder we all grumble

at the mere mention of you!

 

Now Monday has hurt feelings

and she can only weep

so I am quite remorseful,

her tears rise up knee-deep.

Hi Rita. A creative and fun read. I love your sense of humor. You nailed how we feel like this every time Monday rolls around. Your words brightened my day at work when I read it this morning. It brought a smile to my face. Thanks so much. Well penned and a much enjoyed read. Write on!

Thank you, Shelley! It was a rainy Monday around here, so "grey" was my inspiration - but I am so glad it brightened your day! :)

I looked at life from both sides now, and rainy days and mondays always get me down...
Listen, do you wanna know a secret? I get by with a little help from my friends.
Keep workin' it Baby, you're lookin' fine!!

Actually, Monday is blue...

Today, in my neck of the woods, she's grey - I wish for blue!

Ha, I loved the personification in this. No offence but Monday and I are not friends. We haven't been friends for a while... Ha!

Of all the facial expressions I could be, grin is quite appealing to me! Thank you for your kindness, Jacob!

How sad it is, how no one likes Mondays, and yet there has to be a day when we trudge back to work. Clever poem, and much enjoyed. :)

[Rita L. Sev]

True - I guess it's not Monday's fault! Thanks, Soma!

Hahaha cry me a river Monday, boohoo, it's raining here too, nothing like adding insult to injury! Good one as always Rita, you brought a smile to my grumpy face!

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks, Frieda - I think we've got rain all day and tomorrow too - b***h has Tuesday on her side, it seems!

I'm seeing isolated thunderstorms into Friday...! Where are my extra cranky pants? ;-)

I just saw Monday, I think she is getting week in the knees. Very cute Rita. It's beautiful here if y'all want to mosey on down to Texas. We've got plenty of room for y'all.

[Rita L. Sev]

I'm on my way... :) Thanks, Jack!
