Directions for Spring Cleaning

My mother took down the kitchen curtains every spring.
Removed the plain dark blue slipcovers.
Put on the flowered slipcovers.
Washed the venetian blinds and the living room drapes.
Dismantled the refrigerator.

Used elbow grease and ammonia to clean the stove.
And rested.

I take my golf clubs upstairs.
Wash each club face with a wire brush.
Take a handful of tees.
Choose golf balls.
Select a pair of shoes.
Check my cleats.
Find a hat.
Ready.
