Cotton Ball Fluffy

Pure cotton ball fluffy
Most popular tissue, end of a q-tip
Fresh clean virginal snow
Bathrooms and bathtubs
Twinkles in the cosmos
White all around me

Lacy white collars
Lacy white anklets
Lacy white petticoats
Lacy white pantaloons
Lacy white old people
White all around me

Light fixture essence
Glow from a distant headlight
Porches and paper
All the same bright
Tails of deer, polka dots on a navy dress
White all around me

I am looking at my thin white skin which is spotted more like a frog's hand now. Like my grandmother's and it makes me happy.

In a poem, one can use almost anything. After all, poetry is not a scientific treatise. You can see things I never dreamed of! Fabulous. Panagiota

Thank you my friend. I challenged myself to write color poems this week and it has been a blast!

I am a pantaloon kind of woman; they are breezy!
