SMOOTH

Smooth…
Lustrous and warm
Burnished to a high sheen
Pleasing, inviting form
You…
Are smooth
~~*~~
A true find
For the collector
Treasure for
The connoisseur
A sweet fake
For the unschooled
Ooo, ooo, ooo…
You are smooth
~~*~~
Smooth…
Coffee, cocoa, ambers
Terra-cotta sands
Like the sun’s rays
On a winters day
Deep in the fatherland
You…
Are smooth
~~*~~
~~~*Musical Bridge*~~~
~~*~~
There is a lure
To polished marble
Thee illusion
Hot, shining gold
But you step forth
Oh, to caress it
And it will mock…
You with the cold
~~*~~
Ooo, ooo, ooo
You are smooth
So smooth
~~*~~
