MAGPIE...Prompt #142
CHARIS/ Lake Ediza, CA./ 1937/ Edward Weston
THANK YOU, Tess, at Magpie Tales.
CHARIS
Weston's Charis shows her face,
and my eyes are pulled
to that pretty gaze,
boys boots, girls tease.
I wonder which,
but then I spot the access,
the exit,
between her legs.
I was born from that canal.
I see the slit,
covered with layers of modesty.
Beneath the rough cloth,
folds of fine silk,
softest porn.
Great artists do more
than one thing at a time.
Manet's Olympia
looks my way,
seduces,
then dresses to serve
with motherly grace.

Gorgeous...earthy...lovely write, Lyn...
Your perception is keen and your view unique. Appreciated.
Lyn, your poetry is bubbling up from a place so intensely private, so deep ... just keeps getting better and better (if that's possible.)
smiles....nice....sometimes what is concealed has all the more allure than what is shown...smiles.
Your take on the picture is very interesting and different which makes it all the more wonderful!

Hi Dana-
I try to go with first impressions..sort of like the initial truth..thanks so much!
A striking, original, creative take on the prompt.
Oh well done - often what we can't see is more visual than that we can...
