Southern Nylon Curtains
Embroidery is a fancy stitch that gathers true prisms of color,
The needles are gently inserted to catch the threads standing below.
The cutouts are frosted and tend to convey the wonder of open spaces,
The gathers are shoved and pushed to shirring, delight and allure in tow!
Transparency is really a constant observance appealing to all our senses,
The length, the breadth, and the depth of the folds--an elegant compilation,
Bouncing lightly, without a catch, through crevices of considerable expanse,
Cascading as if gently arriving within a scene cloistered for clear admiration.
Match the colors and adjust the lace, attached and perkily standing,
Reinforce the folds with finger irons then gently arrange through contraction
To hold the arrangement for observation, a sight that the senses require
Then open the window and blow out the folds, rebelliously seeking refraction.
In comes the fragrance, it freshly appears, stimulating the senses,
The vitality delights the atmosphere and delicately balances the need
For textures, fragrances, charm, and enchantments, born without a care
To raise our thoughts to the soft, the colorful, the frosted, inevitably freed!
