Notes About The Poem

Shades of Dust



I shook my old mop through the air-

dust flew, whirled about like small stars

and moons circling planets like ours!

Who's shaking their dust mop up there?

Ha, Sandra this reminds of when the lady on 3rd floor of the apartments we lived in shook her dust mop out the window and her dust particles covered our window sill on the ground floor. The hazards of apartment living.. Belle
