There is a poem titled, House Rules, I believe. One of the lines in it is: If you open it, close it. ?

Question

Please supply me with the entire poem, or provide a website address.

Answer 1

Here you go, two versions, even:

"If you sleep on it...make it up.

If you wear it...hang it up.

If you drop it...pick it up.

If you eat out of it...wash it up.

If you step on it...wipe it up.

If you open it...close it.

If you empty it...fill it up.

If it howls...feed it.

If it cries...love it."

OR

"HOUSE RULES

If you drop it...pick it up.

If you sleep on it...make it up.

If you wear it...hang it up.

If you spill it...wipe it up.

If you turn it on...turn it off.

If you open it...close it.

If it rings...answer it.

If it whines...feed it.

If it cries...love it."

Enjoy.
