Sunday PM



She likes her sweet wine
And biscuits pur buerre,
Dipped and sipped
From her roof in the sky.

Garden City is quiet,
Sunday lies in retreat,
The bells have quietened
It is a Sunday silence.

Below Monsieur Axonge
Is twirling, smoke curling
She doesn't see him, he
Doesn't see her.

She dips and sips
He swirls and curls
In the City of Gardens
On a soft Sunday noon.

Bravo! I can't say why I so like this poem, but I do.

Like the descriptions from a Balzac novel. Vivid and comprehensive picture of a quiet Sunday afternoon, with an economy of words. Enjoyed.

She sits in contemplations, painting exquisite miniatures in passages through time.
