Motion

Our prompt this week for the self portrait workshop I'm participating in is Motion. Not as easy as it sounds!



No good!



Horrid!



Ugh!




Ah, no!

I finally settled on the following one even though it doesn't show much of me.



Walk

I wait
while the lavender
evening
fades to gray
and then changes
into a little black
velvet dress
before
heading out
for my walk
each night.

I sip
the dark
whiskey
of fresh air
and nibble
on the Ritz
cracker
of the moon.

A little conversation
with myself,
a wave
at the stars
and this cocktail
party
is just the treat
I need
after
a busy day.
