Lady Plumber
By Ray Lucero
There was a young lady from Albuquerque
Whose cute little house had a plugged drain
Put her overalls on n’ crawled ‘neath the sink
As, she was not one to get mad or complain
She reached for a gallon of “Drano”
Determined to avoid using a wrench
If successful it would be a ‘No brainer’
She poured but the clog was entrenched
She reached for a wrench n’ unscrewed
Drainpipe fittings ‘neath stubborn sink
With plumber’s snake the pipe did intrude
Unclogged the pipe before you can blink
With a satisfied look and a big smile
She assembled the pipe fittings anew
She’d broken a nail, mussed her hairstyle
But in a minute or two she looked good as new
She’d proven plumbing is not just for guys
And dispelled “Weaker sex” n’ all it implies
