Madam Gautreau - Madame X

Diamonds and rubies follow

along together against

a blue satin

neckline

surrounded by raven haired hills

amber eyes quietly closing above.

an emerald blinks here and there

with

gold flecks nestled

in-between.

the traffic on the coast

is sensual at dusk.

from far above the sea

the fading winter light

turning headlights

streetlights

brake lights

into jewels against

a woman’s

evening gown.

it only takes a little

imagination.
