Friday, January 23, 2009: On the Street…Rue de Castiglione, Paris

Playing dress-up as a little girl
Is an experiment

Of decadent, arbitrary
Proportion. Strands of pearls,

Looped and weighty, tangle around
Silver chains, semi-precious

Cut stones pendulous against
A girl’s slight, unformed frame.

  1. Beautiful as always. Brings back dreamy thoughts of my own childhood experiments of dressing up and walking to the local shop in my mother's high heels.

    I was blogging at both sites, but had problems uploading my photos on here so moved my photo blog over there!
