`Barefoot Courtisan`A Poem by Fran Marie
Geisha girl. Lotus pearll
zen gardens float on fronds of ferns
and green peacock feathers
blending colors of cherry blossoms and rainbows
but how does your garden flow?
geisha girl, lotus pearl
bleeding into blue cracked teacups
empty teardrops tainted in black mascara
on white kabuki art drawn masks
porceline in a garden cannot grow
geisha girl, lotus pearl
locked up dreams wrapped too tight
in dyed kimonos and dainty tea cakes
breaking inside fleeting beauty
a dying, colorless heart of a barefoot courtisan
