Nayiri: Bye Lines

Hi dear!

Your linen is clean
And the bed is done
I took the mail in
And left the den light on.

Coffee is in the pot
(you always liked it hot)
A meal in the oven
Just turn the button on.

Sorry could not linger
Wrapped around your finger.
It’s time you mind the store!
I will be home no more!

Bye dear!
