Jeanne Dances in the Doorway of Her Home

February 29, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is portraits of women.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A name poem for a woman who takes a moment to savor her own beauty:

Jeanne dances in the doorway of her home.
Evening comes, then night alive with stars.
As in a dream she savors her own beauty,
Neither vain nor unconcerned with duty,
Nor venturing too far from love to roam,
Even as she pirouettes past Mars.
