Spring dilemma
Dear Editor:
Is Spring around the corner?
Nope she's knocking on the door
With my list to clean the windows
And wash and wax the floor.
Must take time to check for cobwebs
In the corners of the wall
(The spiders have been busy
Since they moved inside last Fall).
Time again to rid the clutter
Can't believe how much we've stored
Seems that we've gone overboard.
Are there closets overflowing
With stuff from who knows when
Should it go or should we keep it
Till sometime it fits again?
Well it seems "Depression Babies"
Have grown into adults
And growing up in those hard times
Brough various results.
While some grew up as savers
And just can't bear to purge
Others left bad times behind
And get that urge to splurge.
Now I think I see my problem
Should I pitch this spool of wool?
Most would see it as half-empty
But I see it as half full.
Oh ... decisions sap my energy
So a line I'd like to borrow
Is from Scarlet O'Hara of Tara
"I'll think about it tomorrow."
Jacque Patrick,
