the dress reveals nothing really

May 15, 2004

the dress reveals nothing really (cotton, isn’t it?)
but quietly suggests the subtle
and delicate promise of all that
Spring has told me
and never gets quite right.

clarified now by soft color against the perfect whiteness of skin
clever Spring! never spoke of you
one hand touches both flower and flesh
as Spring sits silently…waiting.
