Modern Version Psalm 23

My dishwasher is mine; It serves me well. It makes glassware beam high with prisms of delight: forks sing praises minus grit between their prongs. It combats the scorched blues: its low bass humming swirls like a river enroute to calm and cleanse. Though, I am overburdened by platters and grime piled high, I will not be stressed out: My appliance rocks; it leaves no trace of last night's culinary disaster. It restores impeccable order to the platters that seat our daily bread: it partakes of salt and rinse aid; its rejuvenation. Surely, there will always be a place for its sleekness in my abode: and my polished nails will take it for granted always.

I guess you could say the Lord is a dishwasher and we are His dirty dishes, and that is unique take that has a message that agree with. It helped that I could follow along. Congrats on your placement of HM in my contest.
