She needs new glasses
Skewed lenses upon her nose
Quaint, but not in style.
| |
Many daily chores
Without them, would be chaos
Don't ever ignore.
|
Trash out on Thursday
Must be ready by Wednesday
Finish before dark.
| |
Dishes from last night
Sticky pots and pans galore
Scrub, scrub, scrub, and scrub.
|
Wagging nagging dog
Must be fed its food right now
Looks of gratitude.
| |
Bed to be made neat
Mitered corners of the sheets
Summer camping style.
|
Dusting every inch
Oh, from where did it all come
Air is not static.
| |
Hard to see outside
Washing windows in and out
Must repeat next year.
|
Sweeping, sweep, sweeping
Ensure the bag is not full
Hoover here and there.
| |
Scrubbing the tub clean.
Fungus built up on the drain
Now absolute white.
|
Tidy up the clothes
Piles of socks and other things
Folded neat just so.
| |
Spiders way up high
Reach them oh so carefully
Release to the wild.
|
Refrigerator
Full of many unused things
Have we bought too much?
| |
The car needs cleaning
So much grime both in and out
Wait 'til tomorrow.
|
Water potted plants
Each is lovingly nurtured.
Green throughout the house.
| |
Dinner must be made
Oh, what to throw together
Satisfying taste?
|
Music to relieve
So many chores all the time
Sit and rest a bit.
| |
Now it's back to work
A break was what was needed
Do the rest live so?
|
Lightbulb has gone bad
Do I have the correct watts?
Lesser must make do.
| |
Always many chores
Guess who ends up in the fray
Still, noble women.
