in her one curl of hair

keeping rhythm with her heart--
her gibson girl hat

early spring--
sparrow peeks through chain-link fence

Lake's mirror -
the girl with her dishevelled hair
and a weeping willow

Very nice Stanford. Five inches of snow in
Detroit today though, thus...

winter wind
the infant curled
in the curls of her hair

_____ hello Stanford. This WOULD BE MUCH BETTER
FOR ME, IF YOU REPLACED "BREEZE" WITH
"MOTION OF". SPRING MORNING ALREADY TELLS US THERE IS A BREEZE.
IN ANY CASE I LIKED THE IMAGERY.
