First Fifty

On June 9, the Hearst Center for the Arts in Cedar Falls will open its "First Fifty" exhibit. This morning, the first fifty local artists in line were allowed to submit one piece of art for the show. Adam was number twenty-five in line and got in. So, if you like art, you may want to stop by the Hearst Center while you're here in June...great works of art and it's free!

  1. We will go to see AmAm's art, he is so talented!

    I have the house cleaning blues
    I look around and see so much to do
    I look at the walls, the windows, and the floors
    I see heaps of dust layered like boards

    What I need is a good house cleaning crew
    But where to get one, I haven't a clue
    I asked for volunteers, but none would relent
    Their community spirit, it seems, had been spent

    I could wish for an occasional hurricane
    For me, that may not be such a bad thing
    I could raise the windows and open the doors
    And be done with these house cleaning chores

    But hurricanes don't occur where I live
    So its left up to me to clean this crib
    I have devised a plan to get the job done
    Since I can no longer depend on anyone

    My plan is as simple as it can be
    One that is not very taxing on me
    My walking shoes I will lace up tight
    And from this nightmare I will take flight!

    Now you know what to expect when you visit our crib!!!

  2. Hi Diane! Love your poem! I tried to think of some catchy lines for my comment, but I seem to have writer's block. My advice (taken from personal experience): You don't need to clean now...there will be so many people in and out of your house that no one will notice anything but other people. The time to clean will be AFTER everyone leaves!!!!!
