A fence of real chainlink.

A grill out on the patio.

Disposal in the sink.

A washer and a dryer,

And an ironing-machine.

In a tract house that we share,

Somewhere that’s green.

He rakes and trims the grass.

He loves to mow and weed.

I cook like Betty Crocker,

And I look like Donna Reed.

There’s plastic on the furniture

To keep it neat and clean.

In the Pine-Sol scented air,

Somewhere that’s green.

Between our frozen dinner,

and our bed-time nine-fifteen.

We snuggle watching Lucy,

On a big, enormous, twelve-inch screen.

Oh, his December bride,

He’s father, he knows best.

The kids play Howdy-Doody,

As the Sun sets in the West.

A picture out of Better Homes

And Gardens magzine.

Far from Skid Row,

I dream we’ll go…

Somewhere that’s Green.

Until we get it.

Then? We can’t sleep without the honking of horns, and the din of a never-ending night-life forever in the background noise as we fall asleep.

When I get sentimental, "barefoot and pregnant" is not a dirty phrase, it's that for which I long, but then I come to my senses and realize how blessed I am to have the life I have. Good luck on achieving that house with the wrap around porch. My dream house is the one in Field of Dreams. Have a safe trip.</p> I am in complete agreement.
