Shop Girl

I like her flight towards calm and balance.
Wrists up,
At right angles to her direction of travel;
Palms down,
As though the flaps of an airplane
Preparing for landing;
Or is it take-off?

Hi, Virginia. We're gonna get wet!!! As for the poem, it's Meg Ryan on her wait to meet.....Brinkley...(the film, "You've Got Mail") PS Think I'll go out and rent "The Rainmaker"...you know...Burt Lancaster and Katherine Hepburn. Thanks for the comment.

Bob--I think she may be flying...because of youth or unsure of direction. Love the picture it brought to mind...and by the way, you got mail.
