Washes Poems | Examples


Clarke Now Washes His Shirts

Clarke now washes his trousers and shirts
And wants wife to be washing her skirts.
Not a rule launderers quit the dirt
Release of cash to soap men could hurt...

Washing one's pants touches not one's worth,
A decreed king it won't change nor birth,
Cleaning foul singlet not without mirth,
At one's kingdom one shall, at last, berth...

The  truth in what you have heard a dearth,
Like the ones in tales told by a hearth;
It's deserved if into two I burst
And of my sad fate men note the worst.

Premium Member Peace Washes Over

Peace like a river, 

                                     washes over my soul

                                     My gaze is to heaven

                                    For Christ paid my toll

                                     The valley was deep

                                    He bridged the divide

                                  Dries tears that I weep

                                    Drew me to His side

                                  Oh Father, Your mercies

                                   Are pure and so sweet

                                  For You take our broken,

                                   To make us complete

Premium Member She Washes Her Hair With Beer, Vinegar and Egg

It's not a crack to the skull
But the yolk is prepared in a bowl
It is diluted with water

It's not a pint over the head
But the beer from a bottle
It is diluted with water

It's not fish n chips on the scalp
But the vinegar from a cruet
It is diluted with water 

These are all genuine ways to 
Hose down that shock of and
That riotous abundance of
Curtain-like congestion
Rainbow
Long
Drawn 
Out
I love you

Premium Member Jesus Blood Washes Me Whole-

I know it was the blood of Jesus,
that washes me whole;

I am a dirty drench sinner;
from the muck and miry;

O' and I've pleaded the blood;
Of my Savior who saved me;

I am a dirty drench sinner;
from the muck and miry;

I know it was the blood of Jesus,
that washes me whole;

It left His body red;
Though He was pronounced dead;

His Glory rose upon His head;
Contenance pure;

Holy as the white cured driven snow;
I was a dirty drench sinner;

from the muck and miry;
Now I'm watery and flowery;

O' and I've pleaded the blood;
Of my Savior who saved me;

I know it was the blood of Jesus,
that washes me whole;
I feel His presents in my soul;

What Washes This Way

See them Iscariot eyes silver surfing,
filthy lucre foam
	is left in their wake

You best be watching them,
when they’re evil eyeballing you

Dirty money laundry days a-rising, 
grifter ink gloam ...
	palms on the last take

Grimy worst, the dullest dim,
are midnight indigo   shady blue

What washes this way
is soiled paper, scumbag nasty
What lurks in the waves
is avarice sawdust jaw snappy 

Look at them Judas nose bark creepers,
sniffing for bones ...
	make no shore mistake

They sho’ gon martyr discount
sell you out, with pirate plank parroting ease

Dross money laundry days has darker
hue, cerulean tones ... 
	abyss cry for greed sake

Flotsam feet peddling amount — 
for a few silver coins, they will betray please

What washes this way
can’t blood guilty ever be washed Pilate clean
What sink in the waves,
be the anchor of souls bottomless pit dropping

Still, the Liquor Washes My Heart

mind
the port
anchorage
many love boats
discharge hard drinking
drunkard for traveler
many times who came in heart
but no time I caged the unknown
in me still, I wash heart by the love

Premium Member He Washes Me Now I'M Whiter Than Snow

I'm a sinner, and my, my soul is red
But then God looked upon me 
My God washes me, God wash me
White as snow, He washes me white as snow

He come unto me, makes my body whole
As my being is red from my sins
My God washes me, God wash me
White as snow, He washes me white as snow


I'm a clay pot, I'm broken
My God holds me, when He's done He molds me
As when I'm dirty He washes me up
So now I am white as snow
White as snow. He washes me white as snow

wind brushes her tangled hair

moon sings her to sleep.
