Poem - Picture This

This is the first poem in Mr & Mrs Andrews Reframed:


Picture this


Mrs Andrews peers out of the portrait,

unclenches her knees. Look out there,

she says, trees, sheep, in fields so like our

conjoined properties yet –

oddly otherwise.

 

She breathes on the glass, steps through.

On the outside, she says, I may choose to wear

breeches instead of an Alice-blue gown.

Mr Andrews grunts.

In your dreams.
