the polka dot girl

PICTURE AUSTRALIA – Sam Hood, 1872 – 1932. BONDI

And the girl on the right,

the one with her hand trailing in the sand,

and her towel a modest cover,

knows here that she has lost another day.

Yet she smiles at her girl friend’s success,

The Polka Dot Girl, the girl with the tan – and visor, and silver band,

and all the mens’ eyes.
