Another Springtime Chore
Another Springtime Chore

I wrote of springtime yesterday
Of the flowers, birds and bees
And of the leaves and blossoms
On the bushes and the trees
Of the gardening and raking
That is needed out of doors
Not the things, I may be buying
At the Lowes and Walmart stores
This morning when I woke up
And my bare feet hit the wood
The dust I felt beneath them
Was anything but good
It was the house, reminding me,
Of the Springtime cleaning fun
For the vacuuming and mopping
I have been the chosen one
Barbara always did the dusting
That was always what she did
I may have to search the internet
For the lowest dusting bid
For she's no longer with me
To help me with the Springtime dust
I know she's grinning from above
I'll try to do it if I must
I guess we'll see just how it goes.
It may be Fall before I'm done.
I can also hear her laughter,
Although I'm having all the fun
