Young woman ready for an open air tea.
Invitation to Simplicity
If you please, my dear,
Leave vestments behind.
Take tea in the
Open air of summer,
Indulge yourself in the
Pleasure of the warm sun,
Warm tea and me.

For those you who are wondering, the above painting is not me. So, don't even ask. There are many differences between me and the young woman. For one thing, my hair is gray. skp
