Silk

beyond compare
silk..royal fabric of the queens
beyond compare
except to your soft skin and hair
if silk sheets were within my means,
I'd wrap you in their glossy sheens
beyond compare

I was wanting to find some silk organza fabric and can't even find the real silk anywhere. Have you seen it? what they sell now is polyester and so hot to wear.

Beautiful analogy of the silk to soft skin and hair. You're always so creative, Joyce. I won't be weaving any rondelets and hope you take the top spot in the contest. As for alliteration, John had placed the soup definition on his blog and it was an eye-opener for me so I chose to go the other route. Congrats on your success in John's contest! Love, Carolyn
