Grant Norwood Poet Free verse

Magic Soap

My daughter, let’s wash hands
she squeals

I tell her that in grandma’s bathroom
magic soap exists that makes hands invisible
she laughs
together we  wash the dirt from hands
and giggle as we hide them in our sleeves

My daughter, let’s go have dinner now
she squeals
