O good! I tried my hand at this challenge and chose "gray" but just couldn't make it work! I see here that it was a good idea after all. Love that last line!

Wash it away! --- Oh, no! That's gray hair color. The last thing you want is more rain. What a faux pas on my part! LOL... Nicely done, Michelle. ~ Gershon

very well done. At first I thought this would be strange, this one same word on each line, but I have seen folks like you doing it really well.
