My Closet

Today I decided to clean out my closet (Bad Idea)
 
In it I found:
 
A wool coat with a moth hole
Old go-go boots, one needs a new sole
 
An ugly purse made of lizard skin
Inside stained from a leaking pen
 
A baby book for each of my boys
A big box of outgrown toys
 
Three dresses that have shrunk, just hanging there
Old gardening jeans with knees worn bare
 
A bathing suit, too little, I fear
Even some old fishing gear
 
A purple pantsuit..Holy Chit
Glad nobody ever saw me wearing it
 
Some baby clothes that belonged to the kids
Potpourri jars that have no lids
 
So much junk on the floor
I can hardly close the door
 
I know I should throw it all away
But guess I'll save it for another day
 
Well, that was fun, I think with a grin
And just like that, I put it all back in
