A wonderful and humorous 3-5-3 poem. The picture goes beautifully with the words, so that they all flow together well. Best of wishes with this entry. It is a delightful read!

I had never thought of laundry on a line like sails and rigging on a breezy day. A very original image that you have created with only eleven syllables.

Excellent, and good on you for trying different forms, you have done a wonderful job here, and yes we would all like to be doing something else rather than the washing, but you have made this look like fun, best wishes for your contest****kahpot

Thanks for your good wishes and for your review. I went sailing the next day (probably when I should have stayed home and mowed the lawn).
