In my opinion My royal dominion Extends to a house filled with dust My servants are shirking Where'er grime is lurking And so I will clean, for I must Dust bunnies are rising In hordes unsurprising As in a blind frenzy, I clean My royal skirts whishing While dishes I'm dishing And frankly I don't care a bean I whisk in a flurry Those dirt bits might worry But they'll not be missed in my search I fill my horizon With dirt that's arising In seeking, I crawl and I lurch Each crevice and corner Like little Jack Horner Is cleaned spit and polished in vain For too soon in creeping Dust bunnies are sneaking In a month, I'll be cleaning again Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

Kethry--I have lived this poem, but reading about it is much more delightful. |

To maintain clean and neat Is a quite simple feat.. It's no problem to keep a house orderly. But you're working too hard To achieve that reward.. Every month? Sweetheart, just do it quarterly! ![]() |

Hey Kethry...want to come to my place? We're going through some remodeling, I'm sure I'll be able to find you dust bunnies, and more! |
