My Dishwasher

Dishwasher, swish that dish.
Squirt the water on the plate.
Spin around in steamy spray
Clean all muck off that tray.

Dishwasher, swish that dish.
Blast chemicals on so fast
Clean that knife, fork and spoon
Shuddering, cornered in the room.

Dishwasher, swish that dish.
Heat the water, dissolve that fat.
Seek out every morsel and bean
To sparkle bright; special sheen.

Dishwasher, swish that dish.
Feel the heat; see that shine
Squeaky glass feels so fine.
Dishwasher, thou art truly mine.
