On a starry winter night in Portugal

Where the ocean kissed the southern shore

There a dream I never thought would come to pass

Came and went like time spent through an hourglass

-Teena Marie, “Portuguese Love”

She wears a long fur coat of mink

Even in the summertime

Everybody knows from the coy little wink

The girl's got a lot on her mind

She's got big thoughts, big dreams

And a big brown Mercedes sedan

What I think this girl, she really wants

Is to be in love with a man

-Sheila E., “Glamorous Life”

"I've got the children to tend
The clothes to mend
The floor to mop
The food to shop
Then the chicken to fry
The baby to dry
I got company to feed
The garden to weed
I've got shirts to press
The tots to dress
The can to be cut
I gotta clean up this hut
Then see about the sick
And the cotton to pick.

The Woman Works works poem

gives a perfect example for a catalog

poem by saying what the person is

doing in a long list.
