Girl in the Green Dress

HomePoetryGirl in the Green Dress
Summary:
olde write

The green dress of the young girl drowned 

embers emeralds across the  

breeze thru her deckchair hair, 

we surfed the silence of an empty desk 

on first day back at school 

 

The vision lingers, 

deity of seaside souvenirs 

drag me to my knees. 

What price home when 

memory furniture blocks doors? 

 

Ambulance drove slowly like 

an ice cream van carrying mourners 

to their own wake  

 

A green dress 

on edge of death discotheque 

dances amongst mirror balls 

drops into her reflection and sings 

“why did you all never save me?”
