kimono






































no kimono
I haven't a thing to wear
wide sleeves and obi

The word "kimono", which literally means a "thing to wear" (ki "wear" and mono "thing")









dainty and awkward
maiko clip-clop down old streets
arms in wide sleeves























Written for a prompt at CarpeDiem

Awesome set Girl Friday ... I can hear that Maiko run accross the street wearing her first kimono under way to her first appointment.
Brings memories to a movie I have seen several years ago "Memoires of a Geisha" back to mind.
