Oh Kitchen Sink, Oh Kitchen Sink

My ode to my most used place in my house.   This poem is done to the tune of Oh Christmas Tree.  I grabbed one of the children's Christmas Books to find the words.  (See pic below) Sometimes to spark my creativity and just to try to keep myself on my toes I try writing exercises that sometimes  stretch my writing muscles and just to have fun with writing.  This was just a quick write to loosen the screws a bit.  Give it a try!  You will love it.



Oh Kitchen Sink, Oh Kitchen Sink
     by Bonnie Dani

Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
thou faucet is most fair and lovely!
Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
thou faucet is most fair and lovely!
The sight of dishes piled high at Christmas time,
spreads feelings of distress and despair far and wide.
Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
thou faucet is most fair and lovely!

Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
Doth not sparkle in stainless steel beauty!
Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
Doth not sparkle in stainless steel beauty!
Your plug is clogged in sludge of brown,
and your drain oh so very slow down.
Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
Doth not sparkle in stainless steel beauty!

Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
thou hast a malodorous smell!
Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
thou hast a malodorous smell!
I dost proclaim a grand cleaning,
with rubber gloves and scrubby things.
Oh kitchen sink, oh kitchen sink,
Oh why thou can't be self-cleaning!
