Laundering Great billowing sails Wrap me up in the white arms Of sheets hung to dry Rainbow of colors Vivid proof some things do not Come out in the wash The line weighted down Two young boys play hide and seek Between the shirts and jeans ~ Ruth www.angelfire.com/pa/OriginalMinds/index.html [This message has been edited by hoot_owl_rn (05-16-2002 04:30 PM).] |

  (smiles) Awwwww, this is sooooo cute, sweet friend, I remember when I was very little and I used to play hide-and-seek behind mailboxes and trees in my neighborhood! (kiss on cheek) This is lovely, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ruth, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

I love the smell of sheets dried in the sun! And remember playing in the laundry as it hung on the line in my mom's backyard. Thanks for a lovely trip down memory lane.  |

Ms. Hoot Owl was quite ecstatic About her brand new automatic Filled it up near to the brim Slipped on soap and fell right in She was really on the go Jerking wildly to and fro Wet and gurgling, rushing flowing Shirts and shorts all to and frowing There among the suds and bubbles She reflected on her troubles Considered that she'd never been so Pushed around so much by Rinso So then and there she promptly planned To change and use a gentler brand Because the water was too hot She'd change to Cold Power, like or not While Ms. Hoot Owl was cogitating With all her bits and boobs vibrating Arms and legs and dirty socks tangled up in soapy knots Her inside organs disarranged Quite suddenly the cycle changed While Ms. Hoot Owl was all a-whirl Indeed a very home spun girl Spun and sprayed to make her whiter In places that did not excite her And areas that had attention She doesn't even want to mention So Ms. Hoot Owl is quite convinced That to be spun and deeply rinsed Not once but twice will quite suffice To keep her undies looking nice But before they go to wash She thinks she'd rather take them off! |

I like this. It's short, simple, and sweet. That's a skill I definitely lack in my writing! :^) |
