My Moment as Cinderella

I hear a family when I mop the kitchen.
Chirping, singing, from a bird heaven?
Alas, a mystery! Where are they perched?
If only I have some time to search…

…during my moment as Cinderella.
Or perhaps Snow White or Giselle-a?
This simplicity is life’s sweet reminder.
In cleaning a kitchen, you can feel better.
