Hippie Woman

She wanders to her own tune.

Hippie Woman


Flowing, flowered dresses,
knitted shawl and boots-
of a dark green suede.
Wondering streets
by foot or bicycle.

Faraway eyes.

In the park, singing softly
swinging to and fro in time.
Lost to the present
forever in the past.

At police department's door,
asking for an officer,
while actually seeking a man.
Craving company.

Dancing to unknown tune...
in
flowing, flowered dresses,
knitted shawl and boots-
of a dark green suede.
