On my way to buy a morning paper #25

Sadly, the stooped caution of the woman
crossing the potentially icy road
belies the high-flagged confidence
of her vivid scarlet coat.

  1. Lovely contrast between the posture and the flaming coat. I love "high-flagged" too!

  2. You couldn't possibly have seen me from there! :)
    Nice observation.

    I recognise 'stooped caution' but I also know that the red-coat confidence is all an act.

  3. AJ - rest assured that I noticed because I recognised it all too well ... and knew that my coat was khaki :(
