2013 photo, (the lady in the red top - my daughter) in the queue to buy tickets for a movie
She wears her jeans of blue,
Caught in a teenage oooh;
"Looks painted on"
Those catty cronies remark;
Oh, but she; happy as a lark.

Poem In Your Pocket 2010
allamanda
at Poetry Jam the prompt is "jeans"
Enjoyed both, but your second one made me smile. Yes, jeans can live on beyond their prime. A denim tote would be cool!
ReplyDeletecool when you can reuse things like turning those jeans into a tote..and the first one...well as long as you are comfortable with yourself eh?
ReplyDelete"Caught in a teenage oooh" aww so sweet...and jeans taking another birth as tote is very cool.. :)

ReplyDeleteI can see the disapproving matrons and she "happy as a lark". Love the jeans morphing into a tote....cool.
ReplyDeleteTwo very sweet poems, Gillena! I like the idea of a denim tote but it might be too small for all my stuff.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed them both, but really like the second one.

"a pair of ragged jeans'" brings to mind Eliot's "a pair of ragged claws." Let's see:
ReplyDeleteafter English class . . .

scuttling across the mall
And now for something completely different:
in line
for the r-rated movie
my daughter
Pure fiction. Not your daughter, and certainly not mine – I've never had one. "r-rated" in the American rating system means "No children unless accompanied by an adult."
