I Taught Them About CleaningI taught my sister to clean my room,to use a bucket, brush and broom,to dust my clock and picture frames,and pick up all my toys and games.

I taught my brother to clean the bookshelves,To use a cloth and a duster,To dust the books, shelves and the glasses.

I taught my friend to clean the kitchen,To use the dishwasher, mop and broom, To wash the bowls and mop the floor.--Kenn Nesbitt
