Jwg's Grand Hodgepodge —Making Beds (a poem)

112. Making Beds

Making beds
And vacuuming are two unpleasant chores
Which have to be done.

I was a houseboy
Struggling with old mattresses, pillows, sheets,
And “Particular People”.

Vacuums get cranky, too.
How many times does the cord get tangled?
Their wailing gets to one’s inner nerve.

The best suggestion is to get help
Whenever possible to do housework;
And, thank the Helper with a smile — and, money.

One last little suggestion:
It is best to buy a new vacuum.
(I did know Cleaners who brought their own.)

A freshly made bed,
A vacuumed floor, and a clean bathroom
Make a dirty house sparkle.

Entering
A cleaner house with organized clutter
Is living in style.
