time

whimsical lass in a calico dress
holding hat on head
of a bob-cut tress

looking for one daisy in
a autum wheat field
.....and finding instead
an old wagon wheel

tom-boy/lady in between
hayrides and romance....
just looking for fun
she is a halloween queen

lovely lady in a long white dress
with slender white fingers
delicately holding a orchid
bouquet...

she looks at her love 
with his strong lean face

fine old woman
in a blue cashmere......
holding her dreams
against the tick of the
clock

stooped old granny
watching for him
lighting a kerosine
lamp .....
she
keeps supper warm 
on his t.v. platter.

    Much to think about in this poem. Nice use of imagery. Thank you for sharing this woman's journey with us. I appreciate your kind words on my haiku. Karen

    Quick look at life. Damn, as we get older it seems to go that fast. God Bless. Vince
