Little Brushwood saw the car all sudsy and wet,

The car was parked underneath the basketball net.

Mom had three buckets, some rags and a garden hose,

And was getting sudsed up from her head to her toes.

Little Brushwood could only watch from the inside,

As both of Mom’s arms stretched out to clean really wide.

It was good to start the cleaning from the top down,

So all the suds would end up sliding towards the ground.

Finally Mom’s car became all shiny and clean,

And that is the way she liked her car to be seen.

The tools to clean were returned to a garage shelf,

As she next came inside to get cleaned up herself.
