Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Flibbertigibbet

Flibbertigibbet, Wifey is,

A gossip and a chatterbox.

She's never minding her own biz.

I try to tune out when she talks.

I don't think that she means to be

Hurtful in the words she does say.

But hear from friends and family

That Wifey has an irksome way

Of chattering on that and this,

That causes listeners offense.

Her words can tend to cause disbliss,

And I, not her, do hear the vents.

Flibbertigibbet, I call her,

But never to her face for sure.
