C'Est Si Bon



First, I fill the tub.
Water must be just mildly warm.
I put on French music in the 
next room.
Magnolia bath gel and a thick jade sponge.

Thick, ivory robe ready on the hook.
Hair in a coral turban.
I sit down and soak~ ah.
That sponge with magnolia,
it soothes my soul.

Tunes of Edith Piaff fill my soul.
Oh, love my bath!
A Parisian, divine, dreamy, soul
swirl.
Now, I am ready for the world!

Lucky you, Panagiota!! I never seem to find the time to spoil myself like that! Probably you don't drink, for you'd have champagne beside you, too:) ~ Stay safe. // paul

Oh, you have me pegged, you devil. Right! I do not drink-)), A great way to relax sometimes used battery candles to up the ante. I have always wanted a rainbow shower head..seems fitting for a poet, I think! I don't want to stay safe! Knowing now the numbers are untrue! Ugh! Panagiota

My Mother loved lavender, it is such a fresh, lovely scent. She kept it in her drawers where she had clothing, too. Magnolia is more exotic. Mine is a Greek import. Happy Wednedsday. Hugs, Panagiota xx

It is 2:43 am. here and I am sorry that I read this poem at 2:43 because it is not the right time to take a warm adorable bubble bath, and yet I must.

It's OK to do as you must or choose. In this upside down universe! Enjoy it, Caren. Again, you are part if the glue that keeps me here. Panagioita Tuesday, 8:05 AM
