Spring Clean

Spring Clean

 

I’’m letting go of all the bits and bobs

that have accumulated in my heart –

feelings that no longer fit or that pinch

its soft places. I’m sweeping out the

people and places that have gathered in

corners like spider webs. I’m doing a Spring

clean in the basement chambers, going

through boxed up memories, keeping only

the most precious and releasing the rest

to be blown away by winds of change

  1. A unique take on this painting! I love the idea of “sweeping out the / people and places that have gathered in / corners like spider webs.” A spring cleaning can do a world of good.

    I said that I really love the lines “sweeping out the / people and places that have gathered in / corners like spider webs.” Spring cleaning can do us a world of good.
