The poem is quoted on many web sites, as either an inspirational poem, or in order to reflect the ethos of that site. It is usually attributed to either "Unknown" or "Anon".

I believe in giving credit where credit is due.

Thanks for finding that!!!!! It came to me just as I posted. I agree that when possible, the author should be given due credit.

If dust makes a home then I have a wonderful home. I don't mind vacuuming, moping, laundry, but I hate to dust. I need the leaf blower. :lol:

That's about how I feel...we are in the country, surrounded by farm fields, on a dirt road, and prevailing winds from the road towards the house. We don't stand a chance!!!!

I liked the comment about the leaf blower...that would work well for me!! LOL

I live in AZ and about 20 minutes after I dust it's back, just like magic...LOL

Having lived in AZ all my life I got use to the dust but always had lighter colored wood furniture; when I remarried (I was widowed) my new DH (12 yrs new now...hehehe) came with black furniture!!! Definitely can write in black :D
