Dust if you must,
but wouldn't it be
better to paint a picture,
or write a letter,
bake a cake,
or plant a seed.
Ponder the difference
between want and need.
Dust if you must,
but there is not much time,
with rivers to swim
and mountains to climb!
Music to hear,
and books to read,
friends to cherish
and life to lead.
Dust if you must,
but the world's out there
with the sun in your eyes,
the wind in your hair,
a flutter of snow,
a shower of rain,
this day will not
come round again.
Dust if you must,
but bear in mind,
old age will come
and it's not kind.
And when you go,
and go you must,
you, yourself, will
make more dust!

This page is for my sister who is now most likely
dusting everything in sight in heaven.
She hated to see even a speck of dust in her home.
November,15 would have been her birthday.She would have been eighty years old.
Happy Birthday Georgie Lee.
