The color was white
but the winter has been hard
even for the cars.
“You need to wash it,”
they said to me more than once
“It is a white car.”
At last, I listened
and I paid ten whole dollars
to wash the car clean.
The very next day
it rained and snowed and rained more
on my so clean car.
That is not the end,
as I drove home on wet roads
scowling the whole ride
a dirty mean rock
left a chip in my windshield.
Bleeping-bleep rock chip.
Yes, this is a drought
(sigh) so I should be thankful
for all the moisture.
And am I grateful?
I have no pleasant comment –
ask me later, k?

I’m sure something has got it in for you at the moment – with that detergent bottle as well!! 😉
I know, right?!
Not to mention my brother’s daughter and her family came for a visit this weekend. They wanted me to take their family picture. So we headed to the desert (outside of town). My clean car is not clean anymore. Plus, I had to get the rock chip treated so that it wouldn’t become a crack. Cost me $20! (better than a $300 windshield though….)
Maybe this week will be better?!
