IRINA DESIGNSIrina's PoetryClick on the poem title below to read it. Fashion World The world of high fashion Oh, how much I had passion. I dreamed to live it and I did It’s not as easy as it seemed. Oh, the glamour of beautiful clothes Dresses, blouses, jackets and bows. Silk, velvet and viscose In colours of vanilla, sage and rose. How I admired your beauty I did it out of love, not of duty. Oh, how I loved my boutique It was so elegant and chic With a such a beautiful selection, I looked at you with such affection. I dreamed to give this passion to my client But alas, she is so defiant. She doesn’t see the beauty that I see She doesn’t want to go on a shopping spree. She is waiting for the sale And doesn’t care about the beauty and detail. Oh, the long, slow hours of the retail world The story of the waiting for the perfect client is untold. The aggressiveness of the suppliers And the capriciousness of buyers. The cruelty of landlord rules And the competition making fools. Oh, the retail world of fashion You’re so hard to survive without passion And even that is not enough The fashion world is so tough. I dreamed to enter this domain And I had a difficult time but I don’t complain. At least I realized my dream But not according to my original scheme. However, I gave this project my best And put my powers to the test. It was a powerful experience It taught me patience and perseverance. I lived my dream for two years, And took a chance against my fears. In the end, I don’t have any regrets Only special memories and some debts. www.IrinaDesigns.com |
