Chinese Laundry

Sincere effort they are always giving.
Those guys work hard for a living.
Good service is what their customers demand.
The proprietors wash all laundry by hand.
All of the whites will never look whiter.
Anything with color will never look brighter.
Since they came to this country,
They do their best at the 
CHINESE LAUNDRY

I hope their best is good enough for you Robert... I grew up in a barrio many years ago where my parents wash our clothes by hand in the river. I agree, the whites never look whiter after a while. Thanks for your comments. Dalila
