The Friday Poem

A poem every Friday

Claire Trevien

A predominantly black and white old photograph of an oldish woman standing if front of a stone house, arms akimbo. She is dressed in black and wearing a black bonnet-like hat. Her apron is in colour and embroidered with large primitive flower shapes.

Ce n’est pas une métaphore
