The Yellow Chair

A Poem by Sharon D
"

A story about a a three cornered chair and two women..

"

                

                                                  The Yellow Chair

                                It sat there by itself, so straight and proud

                                the legs and back painted Cadmium Yellow

                              it’s seat a soft umber brown of woven twine

                                    there are two hats resting there

                          a neat crisp lovely tan straw with the black ribbon

                                 underneath a soft floppy crocheted cream

                                  with the little jewels sewn into it’s brim

                               are they placed there or just casually tossed

                                     below  on the floor, colored shoes

                                      pink ones slipped off casually

                                    red one’s set neatly side by side

                                     who left their hats and shoes

                                          where did they go?

 

                                       The two women met at the lake

                                           both with their camera's

                                     Pearl with her sophisticated camera

                                     Sassy with her small digital

                                   They bent over looking intently in the lake

                                        what were they hoping to discover

                                        One an accomplished photographer

                                       the other an artist, a watercolorist

                                          which of these women is which

                           did they find what they wanted to capture at the lake

                              or did they create their own picture by chance

                                          They accomplished both
