The Girl Who Dreams of Paris


Painting by Marcel Cordet

The Girl Who Dreams of Paris

The girl who dreams of Paris,
she with poems and the Eiffel Tower
shooting out the top of her head,

needs only bread, cheese
oranges, pencil, paper
and dreams to thrive.

Green trees and
cafe afternoons
feed her too.

But really, just a
white room with
words to lay her
heart on will do.
