My daughter is forever leaving articles of clothing around the house. Even outside.
I was sitting in the screen porch and looked across at her pretty pink skirt forgotten on the patio chair.
It is a contrast in colours and tones, the bright pink against the dark brown; a contrast in materials, the lace against the heavy plastic weave; in shape and form, the softly ruffled fabric against the hard lines of the chair.
As a mom, I also see the contrast in behaviours: Disarray against order.

Beautiful and evocative of how fleeting their childhood is…
So true. You’ve put into words what I felt when I looked at this.
