Geisha

I admire the geisha girl’s
jet black hair, pretty white face
and embroidered pink silk robe
as we sip our tea

For Deb’s Walk Softly contest

You paint the picture so well...I can see the Geisha as she walks softly at a snail's pace! Great job, Jack; and my best wishes for the contest...it's already a winner to me. Always, Annalise
