Lady with a Fan

Katie Frances Hartless
, , ,

I wave my hand,

a fan in summer’s heat.

Beckon you without a grin,

without expecting your advances,

for we have gone past pleasantries–

me in my disgrace,

you with your sad violin.

Who will you play for this evening,

pray tell, for I will not attend.

    a sad and haunting piece; relatable — the power of simplicity 🙂

      Thank you, John. She had something to say yesterday as I passed her at the National Gallery.

        I bet she did — and when you’re ready, you’ll share it 🙂
