Cross, Out Back

[bbcashdollar]

Still needs work:

weathered board and nails
suspending line, laundry
above fresh dirt,
a crucifix

clothes pins held
between fingers and teeth
praising, surrendering,

or a woman
hanging wash

I'm just a newbie passing by but had to stop and say I think your imagery is just beautiful; to me, they are one and the same, a woman praising and a woman doing laundry. Loretta

I'm a newbie too. Thanks for the kind remarks.

I like having the crucifix at the end of the first stanza, bit didn't work for the second stanza. Instead I opted for prepositions instead of colons.
