When I was a child I lived in what was then described as a ' cream brick veneer' dwelling. I didn't know what it meant then but the word 'veneer' has always stayed with me as a sort of colour, mostly a pale pinky yellow.
As ever your poems draw out memories and associations. Thank you Vassilis.
Excellent. And something tells me this is not about furniture.

Elisabeth,
I like the sound of that phrase "cream brick veneer"--I wonder what was underneath! Good to hear this poem brought back memories. Thanks!
