The Secret That Perfume Companies Don'T Know

My hands are sore and cracked 
So its the yellow gloves now
At home with hands in water_
Doing daily mundane chores

Fix meals, feed the animals
Pet the dog, brush the cats
Wash the clothes_enough of that
In kitchen hands in water

Those yellow gloves just don't fit
The odor that emits from them
Terrible_then it stays__stays
A pity perfume leaves fast

What I need to do is sell
Perfume companies the secret

I haven't noticed the smell you describe, but I do enjoy the humor here, Sara. Maybe you can inspire a new line of nonporous gloves! LOL Love and blessings for the tough week ahead, dear. Been thinking of you. Love, Carolyn
