Chiffon Memories

Give me only chiffon memories
     Layered in clouds of satiny ruffles
Fill them with immortal confection
     Fashioned with cherry and chocolate truffles

Take away the memoirs of rain
     The shadows of pain and wire mesh veils
Exchange them for lyrical chords of reflection
     For resonant whitecaps and whispering sails
