This morning driving to work at 6am, still sleepy, I misheard a radio announcer, talking about a Winter Wonderland. I thought he said a Linted Wonderland, and started laughing to myself in the car when I realized my mistake. But then my poetic juices started to simmer and this goofy little poem popped into my cabeza!
Read this in the melody of Winterland
A Linted Wonderland
The dryer spins Filled with sweaters They're the signs of the weather The lint trap is gray as it spins away Filling up a linted wonderland
Round and round, spin some towels Mixed with sweats, down and cowls They tango in dance A fabric romance Filling up a linted wonderland
Mixing whites, with some colors Dumping brights, and the dullers My sweaters are frayed I'm lazy that way Filling up a linted wonderland
When the clothes are dried I let them sit there As they wrinkle into many folds When I go to wear them I'll look awful But I don't give a shit because its cold
On my hair, I'll have lint balls In the colors of my sweat clothes I'll look like a mess Yeah, that's how I'll dress Looking like a linted wonderhead
Muuhaahaa Looking like a Linted Wonderhead

When the clothes are dried
I let them sit there
As they wrinkle into many folds
When I go to wear them
I'll look awful
But I don't give a shit because its cold
I second Paul. Hear hear!! I never did see the sense of ironing shirts that were going to be sweat stained and creased with toil within the hour of my starting work.

You are the Queen of clever, regardless of the lint in your hair or gray fuzzies. Nice way to start my day...guess I'd better get a load of laundry going...ughhhh.
Love, Taylor
Inside the laundry is spinning
and the lint is winning the race.
Come on keep the dryer drying
and the filter cleaning for the lint is spinning every place:
LOL!
Isn't it great how someone can say something and someone else can come up with a delightfully funny write?
God Bless,

Your laundry etiquette sounds about as efficient as mine, Anita! Who needs colours when you can have one particular all-co-ordinating shade of pinkey-grey?! Matches the whites of my eyes a treat! Adore this! YOU sparkle, even if your sequins have been dulled! LOL K xx
Wow! We're on the same page. I have a small trash can next to my dryer chocked full of a linted wonderland. Now...I have dollar signs in my eyes at the prospects of choice real estate.
You're funny!
love,
Susan
I sang this, Anita, and it's absofriggin'lutely hysterical! You did a fantastic job writing this -- only a poet ... only a poet! I love it, my friend!
