Most people think cleaning’s a drudge
Getting rid of every small smudge
Raspberry jam, even sneaker mud
But it doesn’t have to be a dud
No one likes to see sludge
So get on with it, don’t begrudge
Wear white gloves, be the judge!

(Afterwards we might have some fudge!☺️)

Nicely done. I especially like the rhyming pattern in this poem.

The thing about cleaning is that is never done. Once you get the last thing done the first needs to be cleaned again. Bummer!

A fun read. My least favourite is vacuuming. Luckily the hubbie likes to do it.

as Thich Nhat Hanh instructed, I just try to be present when cleaning. And as you note – with a smile ~

If I get the white gloves will it lure someone willing to clean?

Suddenly a got Saw vibes—I’d like to play a game. For years I’ve lived in filth, now you’re here you have a choice to make white gloves.

I doubt that. I had a mother-in-law who wanted to use white gloves but used her evil eye instead

I am sure there are some people who enjoy cleaning. I am not one of them! But if it has to be done, it might as well be done with a positive attitude 🙂

Just the thought of fudge makes the drudge worthwhile!
