Poem Category: Kimono

Red silk kimono,
she steps slowly over
the puddles shimmer.

Red silk kimono
she and shadows
stretching at dawn.

Red silk kimono
still shimmering light
in her mirror.

Red silk kimono
every Sunday
grandmother’s luncheon.

Train window–
suddenly so close
a red silk kimono.

Red silk kimono
decoding her moves
he smiles.

Her red silk kimono
sneaking under
the child’s embrace.

Red silk kimono
the window rain
distorts her passing.

Blushed green
among the patio ferns
her white silk kimono.

Red silk kimono
each sleeve holding
a grandchild’s gift.
