Faded

by

her painted smile
outstretched the years
of silent heat and stormed cloud

mural and plant
Fading mural at the side-entrance to the river esplanade in Iloilo City. Jerry had me stop to photograph it as the last afternoon light was striking the garden grown up over her hands.
To engage fully in the work of art, all you really need are the skills you already have. ERIC BOOTH.
