Everything But

The Kitchen Sink

By David E. PerryPublished 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

When others say they give their all

There’s some missing, you think

They always say it’s everything

All except the kitchen sink

I don’t know why they leave you out

the greatest friend there can be

You are the one I go to most

When in need you’re there for me

When summer heat starts beating down

With a force I just can’t stand

My throats parched like the desert floor

And my tongue as dry as sand

I step inside the air is cool

My friend, that is not enough

I need something that will refresh

Restore the life to myself

That’s why I always turn to you

When I really need a drink

For water flows through curved spout

My beautiful kitchen sink
