A recent event in poetry

Oh the cascading fountain
Sparkling, but dirty in spurts
An solid wall like a mountain
Of water falling to earth

The tile looked better before
This deluge interrupted it's shine
The water is constantly pouring
What shall we do to make it fall behind

The sink it does weep very loudly
I do wish it would stop
This is why I am hurriedly
Searching for towels and mops

Ah, it is all cleaned now
Both up here and down the stairs
But I do hope this isn't how
Other sink-clogs will catch us unawares. :)

Apologies for the meter- which leaves something to be desired, but I thought it was an interesting way to tell about a flash event I had no pictures for. Don't worry, didn't take long to clean or anything, just a little excitement in the household!
