You can’t pick your neighbors.

Will it ever end.
The the sounds that,
you send,
Through the walls.
At an ungodly hour,
Will it ever end.
It’s sending all of us,
round the bend.
It comes not just,
at weekends,
in fact it’s non stop.
I am sure you’re,
not there.
How can you stay,
inside there.
I can feel my temper flair,
from the constant sounds that,
come from in their.
I can’t sleep and,
worst of all my,
children get no,
rest at all.
They are falling,
asleep at school.
The teacher told me,
this is not the way,
it should be.
I think,
they think,
I am doing it deliberately.
When it’s you who is breaking,
all the neighbourhood rules.
Why do you have to this,
to us.
I give you’re door bell a buzz.
You can’t hear it with all that,
noise.
I need to bring in the big boys.
Yes that’s what I will do,
I am going to put a stop to you.

    We used to have a neighbor who threw all night parties, but everything quietened down when he moved out.

    truely said u cant pick your neighvours… but they are important and sometimes may turn out to be a nuisance too.

    My son in law is a musician.!I would not want to live next door to him.!!I know what you mean.
    But if you approach your neighbours during the day time when I believe the music is not so loud and LET them have a read of this Poem of your sorry state of affairs they might do a favour to their own ears.!!
    I suggest you do this before calling in the big boys.!!
    I hope I am not out of order here.

    Sometimes it’s hard for people to realize that there are other people in the world besides them.
