Welcome to Cozy Poetry Corner by Debra A Winter (Richter)

“Shower time, Then Shopping”

Bubbles, bubbles everywhere,

Please get out of my clean hair.

For I wash and wash without a care,

Knowing I’m getting clean in there.

Water is on, soon to be shut off.

Got to get out before I royally cough.

My cold is getting worse by the minute;

I wrap and dry my hair quickly, then spin it.

My birthday suit needs covering; it’s shivering.

I need to dress to stop all the quivering.

Ah, the warmth of polyester and cotton–

Sending shivers away; they’re so rotten.

Now that my bathroom ritual is finally done,

Towels are off; now to have fun.

Shopping time — for what? I do not know.

Anything great, I’ll know when I see it so.

The bubbles in the shower disappear just like me.

I’m clean as a whistle; can’t you see!
