Pinkish Satin Dress


She wore a pinkish satin dress

that twirls in midsummer air

like a sweet dancer on the lavender moon

oh her dreams are wild, desirably wild

she fantasized many stars

when the pinkish satin dress is wistfully

shimmering in glow…..


She twists and turns around

almost like new eve of spring

tip-toeing towards her princess balcony

while the pinkish satin dress sways into thousand night winds


It’s her gown her own beautiful gown

pinkish satin dress

with ballet shoes on

no stockings

just her ashy legs


She’s a butterfly

and goes on in the black sky

where she flies away praying for another gorgeous day

yet her heart is rhythmically beating out loud

like a musical drumming

when she lies down

sleep peacefully


In her pinkish satin dress…
