What is in a dress

an old painting

turned into a dress

in the bamboo grove

I stood

meditated

and wondered

if

my painting turned dress

and worn by me

meant

something

different

An outfit 

a working class outfit

used to be my favorite

when I was sixteen

now years passed

Am I still attached to this kind of outfit

or to the meaning that it could possibly convey

A Laura Ashley material

turned into a mantel

with a flower motif

to celebrate

the period when I was romantic

A simple green dress , without sleeves

a flower motif

on the shoulder

to be eventually

sheltered in a comfotable cloak

An orange mantel

with a hat

and a scarf

for a ceremony of the distance past

A light blue patterned dress

with stitches shown

to link up

past and present atmosphere

Just what is in a dress

the same dress

when you are young

and when you are getting older
