Old fashioned

There was a time when the young ladies walked modestly
in their ethereal white garments and floral hats
along the fragrant gardens of those old country houses
With delicate umbrellas to protect
their white cheeks from the blinding sun
It was the time of grace and kindness
of the quiet talk in the slowly flowing time
A mythical age and a regret
Only old fashioned remembrances
like that solitary ancient table
