Alliteration Poem #2

The next of the alliteration poems is Spinning Dry, also from A Little Bit of Nonsense. Notice the
"sudsing and soaking," the "bobbing and bubbling," the "twisting and turning," and the "fluttering
flopping."

Spinning Dry
If I had a choice, when it's time to get clean
I'd like to jump into our washing machine
for sudsing and soaking and rolling and churning
and bobbing and bubbling and twisting and turning.
Next come my chance to feel just like a flyer
as I get to hop out and spin in the dryer.
I'd roll all around with a fluttering flopping,
just floating and turning with no thought of stopping.

It sounds like such fun, this incredible fling,

that I wouldn't mind if I got static cling.
