Spring Cleaning

Posted on May 29, 2019 by Leonas Lines

Figure with push broom sweeping

Distressed?

Oppressed?

Obsessed?

Depressed?

Repressed?

Suppressed?

Get rid of all those stresses

Banish all those presses

Remove all those sesses

Get rid of all those stresses

Add some blesses, progresses,

Impresses, and successes

Get rid of all those stresses

Banish all those presses

I have often listed those words, not in a sense of creating poetry,but with a feeling I needed to do something with them and never knew quite what. You have done it for me. Good poem, Leona.

  Thanks Diane. The thought stemmed from a conversation I had with my grandson yesterday and I felt led to turn it into a poem.
