Folding Chairs

folding chairs
folding clothes
climb the stairs
the garden hose
needs rewound

writing tablets
writing checks
feed the cat
the kids have yet
to come home

washing machine
washing dishes
fix my hair
send best wishes
to the newly-weds

cleaning rags
cleaning rugs
clean the house
making love
while planning
a new kitchen
