Dear Mr D. Washer Mc Hine

My dear old man
I will miss you dearly.
You were such a support 
To me in the last four years
When we didn’t know much
About anything here
In Scotland.
Although you were short
And small, Most people
Thought you should have
Been bigger
You were there for me
Day in and day out.
Even in the middle of the night
I would come to you
When I couldn’t sleep
And we would commune
In those long dark nights.
We have had our scrapes 
And bruises, both of us
But there’s been no
Hard feelings.
It is sad to see you
Fading out; I understand
You have your physical issues
No matter what they say
One’s time does draw to a close.
You have done your job
For many years,
For two other families 
Before us.
Now you don’t drain well,
You stop when you shouldn't
And you spill water on the floor.
It seems like you are going
To the e-waste recycling centre
And sadly I doubt that you
Can be rehabilitated.
I appreciate every dish
Pot and pan you have washed.
Excellent service, 
Mr dishwasher machine
You will be remembered

It's  tragic when you 
Have to let a good one go. 

Jokes aside, I love the appliances that work well in my home and they are hard to replace without good references.
Enjoy your day.
