To Doreen, the shepherdess who keeps her sheep from wandering aimlessly, a salute from the heart...

I have always felt that this poem could have been written for you.
Tea time in Doreen' Peri's garden.
thank you for studio eight.

Tea at Rachel Varnhagen's


Currant bread and current affairs
Strong Assam and rooms hazy with words
Beauty and brain not a contradiction in terms
Salons where male and female minds
Shamelessly mated on plush ottomans
Where sensuous mouths dared breathing hard truths
Where strong wills fearlessly bowed to the
Ingenious stroke of a feathery well-kept hand

June 2006
