Sunday Morning
![](http://www.livingtransitions.com/images/broom.gif)
Like a ritual
Every Sunday morning,
Sweeping the kitchen floor
With an old-fashioned broom.
While the rest of the family
Ran around in a frenzy getting dressed
For Sunday School and church.
Sweeping the kitchen floor with such concentration,
In a world of his own.
Holding the broom so tightly
As if someone might try to take it away from him.
Wonder what he was thinking about
While he was sweeping the kitchen floor.
Was he trying to get in the mood for church
Was he thinking about his past war experiences
Was he thinking about his family,
Father, mother, wife, and daughters
Was he thinking about his job
Was he worried about something we knew nothing about
Was he only concentrating on getting the floor clean
I will always wonder

Good songs.
Men - what are they good for?
Oooh oooh, I know, I know, can I answer?
LOL.
Folsom Prison - Johnny Cash is kinda like Dean Martin, always good to listen too. Good voices.
The poem....
I like how she narrowed it down to just concentrating on cleaning the floor.

HI Sam, snippy and everyone!!
What a bsuy day I have had!!
Up at 6:00am, off to church for 8:00am service, then breakfast after the service, and then off to the Renaissance Fair for the day!
Wow, I was beat when I got home. I went to bed for a quick nap and slept for hours.
This fair was huge. Thousands of people, stores, shops, exhibits, joustings, etc.
Renaissance is one of my most favourite eras in history.
:-) Sorry I have not been around today, but have to get this stuff out of my system now.
I bought some beautiful jewelry!! Oh boy, that's where my money goes.
