Vermeer and His Girls
VIRGINAL GIRL
begin the beguine..
Make your music mine
LAUGHING GIRL
joy's outflow-from eyes aglow
GIRL WITH EARRING
a look of love-
into eternity's mirror
LACEMAKING GIRL
intricate detail
patient design-
portrait of time
MUSIC GIRL
when the music ends-
we no longer can pretend
LETTER GIRL
a few words
can make us ill-
or better
WINEGLASS GIRL
a girl with a glass
chateau red-
a touch of class
NECKLACE GIRL
mirror to face
with a necklace-
memory without a trace
PENSIVE LADY
lost in thought,
she sighs...caught
by vermeers eyes
PIANO GIRL
sing and play
concert,piano forte-
art,forgotten today
GUITAR GIRL
the music of the dance,
love in her glance-
to her true love,perchance?
JUG GIRL
a maid,unafraid
innocence..
displayed
LUTE GIRL
her tune,picked by ear
brings forth a tear-
yet draws us near
BALANCE GIRL
a delicate touch
frozen in time-
a story in mime
SINGING GIRL
the singers or her song
forever to us belong-
picture music vivant
THINKING GIRL
think on,think long
thought,her everyday song
