The blue-handled broom,
weary from too much sweeping,
sags in the corner.

    Sometimes we feel like that broom in the corner. How clever are you.

    But the straw broom also shows what an important role it has in life by being so well used! Lovely thoughts!

    I’d feel weary too after all that sweeping. Ooh, that reminds me, I need to buy a new broom, ours just broke!

    So happy to have RT(2) continue! The broom in blue gets to share space with the ruby handled plunger. Both passive tools of the cleaning trades…
