Premium Member she is a graceful swan

she is a graceful swan
dressed in taffeta with roses
and tiny rhinestones that glitter as she swoops
her legs are pointers
her arms are magical,
she is a swan

A fellow from the south of South Africa Waltzed around in a skirt made of taffeta Some thought he was strange With his long curly mane A lump in his skirt proved him male to the maxima

Premium Member Cotton Laughter

Just
a bit 
too formal,
pearl taffeta 
or buttered chiffon;
I’m more into cotton,
something to belly laugh in;
Toes in the sea or a theme park;
Stained all over with a good time,
living in a tank top with rhinestone fringe.

Dance Little Lady Dance

Dance little lady dance all night 
in your little pink dress, of taffeta and light
swirl little angel swirl like a girl 
for the stars are a shining my little pearl 

Dance little lady dance all night 
in your little pink dress you look alright.

Premium Member celebrate your faerie self

celebrate your faerie self

your light, lithe, lovely side
the one that you had almost forgotten about

the one that wears a taffeta rainbow tutu
and a shiny silver tiara with pink jewels

The faerie self who dances around on moonbeams nightly
celebrate her

The Wind and Her

Listen to poem:
Sitting here between sheets of glass I move freely 
clothed by the gloaming of a beautiful morning 
I am a nonreflective wind in motion this moment 
washing over her with pink taffeta clouds watching 
the scene below, it's as if this birth that will be
a yawning yore soon is the only art in her eyes,  
that truly matters.

Premium Member wearable art

Some artists utilize watercolors
Others dabble in clay
Some quilt
Others know ribbon embroidery

Some artists add glitter and sequins
Pearls, feathers, taffeta and other fluff
I like artists who think outside the norm
This artist wears her art

It is wearable art, she tells me
And it is for sure
she is the ultimate artist
I am proud to know her
art

Premium Member Winter

Adorned in silky taffeta she strides,
cool, crisp, and confident.
With delicate lacy trim she glides,
a snobby sophisticated countenance,
behind which a volatile temper hides.
Once quiet and sultry,
now chilling and unpredictable - she chides;
burning cold upon her breath
and breast where nature's wrath resides.
We've seen her dance before -
our tempestuous bride.

Premium Member Cupcake Queen

Cupcake queen made no apologies for her darlingness.
Her light lavender hair looked normal on her, I must confess.
Her multi-colored taffeta tutu would have made me look like a clown.
On her, it looked more right-side-up than upside-down.

Cupcake queen had whimsical ways that entertained us.
We played to her strengths, as she gave us no fuss.
Her costume was unique, I think she created it herself.
She looked like a doll who had jumped off a warm candy shelf.

Premium Member Satin Moonbeams







I recall you, that suave cologne, your black tuxedo with red satin sash.
My taffeta, crimson ballgown that crinkled, we the outstanding duo.
At the San Francisco’s, suave Faimont Hotel’s
elelegant, primo, Valentine Bash.


Moments like these, scented with Guerlain mists, are my twinkling majie noir.
Bending me over the balcony with tender yet exciting, hot kisses.
A magical foggy San Francisco night,
If only, there were many, star-studded moe!

Burgundy Taffeta

As death embraced my whole being
Shrouded in burgundy taffeta
Her arms forceful
Embraced me
So as we spooned
I could not turn to see her lace shrouded
Face

She whispered
In Victorian tongue
Just loud enough to menace
Yet no matter how intensely I listened
Not one word
Made
Sense

I tried to respond
Or scream
Or raise
But my living soul stood still and silent
We swooned
Noir skies
Still
Laid out
And wrestled silent screams
And finally she softened her hold
And allowed me to leave
Our dream
