I have a wash most every month
Sometimes it’s once a week
But if you’re using too much soap
It makes your skin grow weak

I wash to impress the ladies
But I won’t go over the top
I’m not a sissy lady boy
I’m not some kind of fop

Dirt it keeps the germs out
It keeps the bugs away
How do you expect me to be Sunday best?
When you send me out to play

Mother has a fascination
She’s always scrubbing my lugs
She tells me dirt’s unhealthy
But I know my ears won’t grow spuds

In the street she produces her hanky
“Spit” she says to me
Then she scrubs at the smuts on my face
Where all the world can see

I take exception to all this washing
To do just what I am told
‘Mother’ I’m not that mucky
And I’m 47 years old

Dear Mr.Stuart! A beautiful and straightaway write. Also we come to know that your mother is a caring and kindly woman even in this disturbed age. She had not used a stick otherwise you would have the bath at least once in a week even in cold days. However, Well done .

Thank you Mohammad. I think maybe we have a breakdown in communication though. This was meant as a Humorous write, not serious. Then again I know nothing of the language of Pakistan, so your English is far superior to my Khower (chitrali) or Pashto. (I'm not sure which dialect you speak)
Bless you for the comment though.
