Another Springtime Chore

Another Springtime Chore By Franklin Price 03/08/2022 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
