Odious Ode

She sat beneath a shady tree Pretty, Pert and sweet was she Until a soft breeze lifted her skirt Showing her knees which were full of dirt. Shabby shoes and smelly socks looked odd with lovely Golden locks The sweet-faced girl appeared serene. Sad her feet and legs weren't clean.

I have seen something similar - when I forget to look really hard at the underside of my arms where I always put them into paint.

G'Day Rico, I think her soap may have been on an extra-long rope.
