Don't Leave your Ropes out in the Rain! (Mudcat Poetry Corner)

From: harpgirl

Don't Leave your Ropes out in the Rain!


The high rise window washer sways
Amidst the birds, on sunny days!
A speed break locks around his cable
And this keeps vittles on his table
I watch him Sqeegeeing the fixtures
with vinegar and ammonia mixtures
Hanging, seemingly suspended,
by fragile ropes and lines untended!
I marvel at thee window washer!
Within my office, low and posher!
Perhaps I'd offer reassurance,
If I didn't sell insurance!


inspired by a window washer friend in Arkansas who plays fiddle....hg
