Silky White--Satin Smooth
A scent of Jergen's almond cream
envelops me,
remembering
The essence of the lotion brings
the heart a soothing memory
She's in my dreams to ease the dawn
White porcelain, her hands become
the touch embracing time tonight
I feel them pass across the light
There is no blossoming of any tree
No solace that can touch the quivering
to match a keepsake memory
that comes back for my company
The hand that touched my face, with vows
could soothe the shattered heart, and brow
was white, and cool, was satin smooth
and calmed the troubled seas,.... somehow
