Floors need scrubbing
Silver needs polishing
Gotta get busy
I'm running out of time
Carpets need vacuuming
Windows need cleaning
Furniture needs dusting
Gotta get busy
I'm running out of time
Eggs need dyeing
Baskets need filling
Decorations need hanging
Gotta get busy
I'm running out time
Groceries need buying
Food needs cooking
Cake needs baking
Gotta get busy
I'm running out time
Mind needs calming
Nerves need soothing
Body needs resting
But I gotta get busy
I'm running out of time!
I enjoyed your repeated phrasing, and hope you can repeat a relaxed-and-enjoying-life mantra when these tasks are completed.
ReplyDeleteFast-paced piece that captures the busy season! I think I am going to pretend that Easter isn't happening this year. My son said he doesn't feel like celebrating any more with baskets or dyeing eggs, and I think I'm ok with that!
