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
