Tissues found where shadows begin Orts of sorts and a bobby pin Gem clip slipped under hutch nearby Dust accumulating by and by Under the couch, as far as I know A lost sock — hey, that’s where they go! Leaves leaving trees that somehow sneaked in Relics of bygone years that cause us to grin Watching the World Cup with guests on the floor I’m so glad I vacuumed — I’ll say it once more!
