Spring Cleaning

Sometimes things make more sense in metaphors
and everything becomes clear 
when the dirt is out of the carpet.  

The way the stars align when the dust
lines up at the mouth 
of the dustbin. 

Sometimes questions are answered as you watch
dust fall– as you sway. 

Sometimes the first smile after 
a breakup comes while dancing with the broom
on the kitchen tile.
