Sweet Scrub MAG
April 19, 2008
Her smooth fingers
Coat a car windshield
With sun-kissed cream.
Dipped in butter soap,
Sponges soak up dirt,
Reveal the lost glimmer.
She sprays hose-water
Like an April shower,
Onto the glossy hood.
Her shiny reflection
Meanders in droplets
Down metallic doors.
Froth tickles her toes
As a bubble of delight
Escapes from pink lips;
It frolics with soapsuds,
Dancing to the melody
Of her sweet laughter.

I really enjoyed reading this poem! I love happy, joyful tone. I also like how this flows; it's not too choppy. Great job!

I liked the use of imagery and word choice... not very deep but it was short, sweet and a light read. Good job!

Your writing is beautiful, yet it lacks a creative plot. Next time, try to write about something with more meaning! Great structure though!

"as a bubble of delight escapes from pink lips"....what is this?? are you joking? i mean i get where you are coming from on the whole imagery thing with the girl washing the car, but seriously? what did she do, stick her head in the bubble water and blow some bubbles with her mouth? i just dont understand why this was put in the poem because it couldnt make any less sense in the context of the poem. Great job!
