Endless company
Overnight guests
Sheets
Towels
making beds
stripping them
meals prepared
and
clean up afterwards
Laundry
Folding
Kids with sticky fingers eating chocolate in my bedroom
damp towels on the floor
Sand in the house
Sliding doors left opened
Little ones pushing on the screens to get out
big ones constantly hungry, coming in
wet suits on the couch
video game cords attached to the TV
water bottles abandoned half full
ditto
pop cans
get gas
fill and refill
round and round on the boat
more gas
who’s turn is it?
Suntan lotion
Life jackets
Getting ready to go
Preparing to leave
Loading and unloading the van
Taking off the tarps
Putting them back on
Cobwebs swept
Cobwebs back
Clean floor
Dirty floor
Leaves blown
Leaves back
Leaves blown
Leaves back
Raking seaweed
Collecting wood
building a bon fire
disposing the ashes
have marshmallows
need chocolate
have chocolate
need graham crackers
endless garbage
pop cans and bottles
everywhere
thought I just bought paper towels
wrong house
Arranging chairs on the beach
Stacking them
Anticipating everyone’s needs
Cleaning up after they are gone
Items left behind
Lock the door
Set the alarm
Then do it again in a week
With a whole new crowd
The hammock would be one of my favorite places
If I ever had the time
But that’s another story
