Hung Up On Memories

Freshness,

Never Smelled So Good, 

Remembering,

My Grandmother's Bed Sheets, 

As,

They Dried, 

On The Clothesline,  

Beautiful, 

Wrinkled Colors,

Waving, 

At Me,

Upon,

Gentle Breezes,

Then, 

Off To Bed,

Dried,

And Tucked In,

Rocking, 

My Senses, 

To Sleep, 

Fresh Air, 

Cuddled, 

With Me,

Memories,

Like These,

Pinned, 

In My, 

Sleepy, 

Little Head.
