Washing Dishes Poem by Liz Palana

Washing Dishes

Rating: 5.0


To wash the dishes
is to erase the history
of last night's stain,
to soak the markings
of sugar frosted cake and spicy chili sauce
in soap suds,
and to scribble yet another chapter
of a never-ending story
with bubbles of different colors
until the dripping water from the faucet
drench them in tears
and make them disappear
forever.
