Business As Usual

#1 Post by meenas17 » 21 Jun 2019, 07:54

Paucity of space
where I can store
gifts and presentations,
make my house unkempt.

The racks overwhelm.
Vessels,boxes and baskets
of all sizes and materials
might crash any moment.

I chalk out an anteroom
near my parlour. Must have
racks partitions to arrange,
along with nice ventilation.


Adding a room is not cheap
I find, The cost exceeds
the value of gifts by thousands.
Not wisdom, I understand.

It is quits for now,
I will revive, perhaps,
when the receivables
surpass the expenditure.

It is business you discern.

Do you really need racks partitions? Rack partitions,is not the same thing?
Nice ventilation.This'nice' is not a nice word for poetry.Please change the adjective.
I find, The cost exceeds ('the' instead of The.)
It is business you discern,(.)

I know the situation. I like the humor.
