Has everyone else got "A Life"?

Question

Has everyone else got "A Life"?
Are you a working man or a busy wife?
Am I the only one on a Tuesday morn
Sitting alone, bored and oh so forlorn?
Come on girl,get away from the keys
There are leaves to be bagged fallen from trees.
Get your act in gear,there is work to be done
Life is not all parties and made up of fun.
Come on old girl, give your face a slap
On second thought, I think I'll have a nap.

witty and charming! You have absolutely no problem with expressing 'meaning' here...that is a big plus! Your poem was a delight to read, light and so true!
When I'm not working, I'm sleeping. When not sleeping, I'm getting ready for work. Eating as I can, writing has taken a backstep, too. WHOA! Think I, too, will have a nap! Your poem was inspirational!

I like my leavers scattered and smothered. Laying down by my monitor is my life. There's a whole world inside it, and when I get tired all I have to do is roll over and nap.... I liked your poem...

There are poems to be written.
There are poems to be read.
Every day's not about working.
C'mon, let's stay inside instead.

We can chat with our friends.
We can post a poem or two.
After all isn't that exactly,
what you'd rather sit and do.

I was always told in snooker to go with the nap. Been doing it ever since. 

A Life? Where can I download one of those?

what fun!  I always feel guilty, so now I take 1 day, do all the chores so I can be here if I'm not at work.  And naps are very important!

I like your poem very much. As for its message: You are not alone. You are not there, while everyone else is here. The miracle of the Internet allows all of us to be together--after that nap, of course!

Marguerite · Answer

Funny poem!  One of the little joys of life is taking a nap.

neonman · Answer

And what is wrong with a nap, especially since you are not driving at the time! lol  Now as to weaning from the internet needle, good luck.
A fun read.

Warren D · Answer

I'm many things to many people.  I am a working man.  I am a retired man.

I am the "fixer."  I am the "shopper."  Sometimes I'm the "cook."  I'm the "driver."

I'm a husband, a dad and a grandpa.

I guess that means I've got a life.

Reenie: Mom of Marine · Answer

Hahaha! Depends what you consider "A life!"
Kudos to you for being able to nap in daylight hours. Guilt overwhelms me if I try....like those leaves you mentioned!
Lovely, fun poem!

Um yeah, I guess.

So, everyone does have a life, as they choose to do with it is a prerogative.
Neither. I get paid to laugh. 
Tuesday? I thought it was Friday.
Alone is better than acquiring bad taste in companies.
Girl? What keys?
Tress? Rake em’
Explain what act is pre-approved by you “to make myself worthy and true”.
GAY
Parties are life. Fun is made up.
Slap yourself, it helps.
No sleeping is crucial.
