A filthy car rolls forth to seek its bath, While washers march with tools and knowing smile; Their practiced hands trace out a skillful path, To tend each inch with dedication's style. With forceful streams they drench the metal wet, As stubborn grime dissolves beneath their spray; Each tire and rim they scour—none forget— Till every trace of road dust fades away. Then fragrant shampoo cascades down the whole, As practiced cloths caress the surface clean; Fresh waters pure in rushing torrents roll, Till every panel catches sunlight's sheen. The car departs, now lustrous, clean and bright, While next in line advances into sight. -
