On a Park Bench

Snow falls the velvet gown my hand imprints its deep pile as if a memory footprints of a fieldmouse slide and circle a figure skaters choreography the sun rises from above the cloud as if a growing flower in winter shine crystals glisten are they glass beads or pearls?

Very fine pen picture drawn sitting on a park bench of the falling of the snow and the rise of the sun, Lesley
