Hello Poetry Lovers
Welcome back to another favourite theme of mine – clothes. 
Love writing about these very personal items. After another wonderful workshop with Sue Burge on the subject of Power Dressing, I came up with this couplet number. Wistful yet funny (I hope!). 
Hemline

I ruthlessly shed low-cut numbers
Put blousy vintage dresses on eBay

Pulled hemlines over aging knees
Slit skirts a colourful memory

Revealing tops a thing of the past
Part of a glamorous heyday

Wistful glimpses of lace and stockings
Turn into American Tan hosiery

And colourful tights and mini skirts
Put me in the family way!
What do you think, PL’s? Do you have a much loved garment either in or out of your wardrobe? Let me know. Answers on a postcard please…..
Thanks for tuning in, Poetry Lovers. We’ll be back with more poetry adventures real soon…
