Whenever my back starts to itch,
the dryness prompts my skin to twitch.
When finger nails don’t work, I mused
a wooden back scratcher is used.
Cross shaped colors of pink and red
are etched on my back while in bed.
Where creamy lotion does not soothe
a wooden back scratcher is used.
An itchy back means sprouting wings
whenever His helping hand brings.
How each other’s back is not smooth
a wooden back scratcher is used.
Whenever my back starts to itch,
a wooden back scratcher is used.
First attempt at kyrielle sonnet…
