Something Few Fret
by Rachel Hoyt
Grime's worst enemy,
A germ's frenemy,
Rough and tough yet,
Something few humans fret.

Fun is when I share a randomly captured moment,
or perhaps a photo experiment with more purposeful intent,
then pair it with a rhyming riddle to exercise your mind
and teach you more weird facts to which you once were blind.

After the answer is guessed, I will post a second,
non-abstract photo...
and just in case you wanted to know,
the first is not a photoshopped version of the second -
they're shot using different techniques that to me beckon.

So what is this thing that few fret?
You all can guess this one I bet.

The Slow Wit Poet has won again
and proved sponges are objects that ARE known to men.

A loofah?
ReplyDeleteA great guess, but not quite right... But you're quite close. :-)
DeleteA tooth brush?
ReplyDeleteLess close to the answer than loofah, but still a good guess. :-)
DeleteHmmmm... Maybe it's some sort of scratch pad or sponge like cleaning tool?
DeleteIt is a sponge! Well done. :)
DeleteSweet! The germ line really narrowed this one down, but oh the list of germy things we put up with!
DeleteIt is true there are lots of germy things. I just thought you could see the sponges a bit in the abstract photo, which would help someone get the answer. :)
DeleteDamn! Somebody got it already!? I was going to guess "steering wheel" or something like that, since they say there's more germs on your steering wheel that the toilet handle...or something. I guess I would have been wrong, anyway.
ReplyDeleteHaha. Steering wheel would be a good one to do... thanks for the idea! :)
DeleteI had no idea, but one of my pet peeves are people who use nasty sponges to wipe counters, do the dishes with, and who knows what else! Blah!
ReplyDeleteGerms to wipe up germs? What's you're problem? Just kidding... :)
Deletei'm with leah on this one! haha!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteI obviously joined too late! Next time I need to visit early :) Have a great weekend Rachel!
ReplyDeleteYes, many of the riddles get solved early in the morning, but I'm pondering mixing in another game now and then that would last all day or longer. :)
Deleteeww...sponges are nasty things...ha...
ReplyDeleteHehe. Yes. I think I originally planned to require the answer "dirty sponge" for this one. Ha. :)
