Ode To Cleaning!

I used to be the Goddess of Cleaning,
And now I know I must have been dreaming,

"Who let the maid go?" I thought,
Dusting, Cleaning, mopping, what happened to all that crap I bought,

Cleaning supplies and gadgets and more,
Are supposed to be time savers, oh what a bore,

I got out the sweeper one day, now that was a happening,
All the attachements kept falling off,I didn't say a nice thing,

Don't you just love to empty the dust cup to the sweeper,
Billowing clouds of dust that could hide the grim reaper,

And cleaning the bathroom, what fun,
Other peoples ungy grungy's make me run,

Dusting, who does that,
When I start to dust, I think oh drat,

I dont lack skill, I just lack will,
I praise the dust bunnies, and the grime,

What's the matter, is this a crime?

    Not a crime at all. We all hate those nasty chores! I agree, we all buy those gadgets that are supposed to help with the load to make life simplier...what a laugh that is! Sie Great peom, good luck in the contest.

    Very Funny !

    I have taught my cat to clean. She scoots her toys under the bed, eats those pesky bugs and lets me know when it is time to clean the litter ... OUCH ... my nose has another scratch! I am glad you joined AP ... bye for now ... KC
