Spring Cleaning

House Cleaning Blues
by Ellen Bailey
I have the house cleaning blues

I look around and see so much to do

I look at the walls, the windows, and the floors

I see heaps of dust layered like boards

What I need is a good house cleaning crew

But where to get one, I haven't a clue

I asked for volunteers, but none would relent

Their community spirit, it seems had been spent

I could wish for an occasional hurricane
For me, that may not be such a bad thing

I could raise the windows and open the doors

And be done with these house cleaning chores

But hurricanes don't occur where I live

So its left up to me to clean this crib

I have devised a plan to get the job done

Since I can no longer depend on anyone

My plan is as simple as it can be

One that is not very taxing on me

My walking shoes I will lace up tight

And from this nightmare I will take flight

Spent all of yesterday spring cleaning...definately have spring fever...so nice to feel that sun again...to see the snow melt...can't wait to smell the sap rising in all the trees...I love that smell...of young green leaves opening...Cottonwood trees have that unbelievable scent when they open their sticky buds...Ok... I must be day dreaming here...I was talking about spring cleaning & ended up babbling about sap...Anyways...to make a long story short.

SPRING HAS SPRUNG...& THAT MAKES ME HAPPY

& so does a clean house!

Have a sunshiny day!

Be Happy

OK
