Best Spring Cleaning Poems
Spring CleaningSpring Cleaning
Springtime is a chance to start your life anew,
Dust off your pride and change your attitude.
Bring forth the hidden treasures, of your heart,
Don’t worry about the past that tore you apart.
Let the fresh air cleanse your soul, body and mind,
Release the inhibitions that have...

Spring Cleaning of the Cluttered SoulScrap the smoldering, winsome words
the lovely odd truce made of letters
found carved with the edge of an old pocket knife
on a strap made of metal and leather
Burn off the tarnish on platinum rings
engraved with the infernal: "LOVE"
found pulling limp loyalty up to it's feet
and then...

Spring CleaningSpring Cleaning
Closet doors open,
Sweeper to adjust,
Housecleaning today,
Yes, spring cleaning is a must.
Windows to wash,
Cabinets to clean,
Dust mallet to swish,
Even on outdoor screen.
As soon as my laziness passes,
My deeds I will again tackle,
First to by a new pair of glasses,
To attack dust again and cackle.
I haven't...

Spring CleaningDust swirls around in breeze and wind,
Dust falls to ground often unseen.
In time we see these dusty piles,
A dusty sea must ever style.
Spring clean the space within the house,
Wet wipes erase the dusty grouse.
Now for a while, a freshness floats,
Soon dust re-styles with dusty coat.
Dust...

Spring Cleaning SymphoniesSongs found together,
Lost in the ether,
Never again to be heard.
Back in their cases,
Tied up with laces,
Memories captured , like birds.
Turn radio off,
A flame for a moth,
Sad, genial melodies.
They fissure my heart,
And hold me apart,
Snaring with sweet harmonies.
Anthems of love,
lost like a glove,
Just one half still...

Spring CleaningFresh sweat runs down from eyes to chin
a foamy day launders hand with air’s foam,
washing the slime of April's gray mould
and dressing up a brightened face to roam.
Brooms of nature scrub old clay
mopping fields as skies polish new trees.
Prayers stem from fingers...

Spring CleaningGoodbye old friend it is time to go
Now that spring has melted the snow
The sunlight and rain brought freshness again
So it is time for spring cleaning to begin
It seems each year it is out with the old
Many things at a yard sale to be sold
Pots,...

Spring Cleaning For Another Time - 3-13-18If this were then I’d draw the line.
I don’t say it, obviously,
I mean it inside.
If this were then I’d
break the glass with my
Burning & rage,
Maybe.
Glass underfoot
I wonder if I’d feel it
I wonder would it hurt
The way you do
If only for an instant.
I guess not,
I guess...

Spring Cleaning
April's here, and winter's gone-
well-worn and gray. Now we're drawn
watching spring repaint each scene-
soft pastels and sunny shades of green.

Spring CleaningThere’s a reason why the windows
Don’t get cleaned but once a year
And the answer, like my windows now,
Is obvious and clear.
It’s an awful, dirty job and it
Takes effort, time and sweat,
With an unobstructed view the only
Bonus that you’ll get.
If you live in an apartment,
On a...

Spring CleaningWind swept over the fields
blowing the spring dust
winter snow was not heavy
it melted very fast
the quick dryness of spring
made everything cling with dust
wind whipped as the dust
settled on cars, windows
basically everything outside
Spring cleaning needs to be
a good hard rain to renew
and...
