Alabaster flesh
wrapped in black cocoon
Shes the lady in the sun hat
She braves the morning light
though shes girded for worse
Soft cotton billow flows her frame
Shes the lady in the sun hat
Shes ready for mid-day
sunglasses on notice
Godspeed, lady in the sun hat
that you escape these piercing rays
that would weather your porcelain
Lady in the sun hat
beneath the tree
Lady in the sun hat
your symmetry
Your colors in concordance
Will you grace us further
in Autumn’s gentler light?
