Her (Pt.2)
It was her
From the
Magnificent
Irish seas
I looked into
Bewitching
Pearl eyes
This vixen
This siren
She’s
Beautiful
So beautiful
A muse
That glows
And yet she’ll
Brutally bruise
A bone
With her fuse
That blows
A red-headed
Crimson
And fiery beast
For starters
The waiter
Brought us
Crushed grapes
From the
Provinces
Wine
With cheese
Then left us
To drink
And to dine
In peace
She said
“I like this one
It’s fruity
With a pinch of
The cinnamon
Spice
A hint of the
Mildest heat”
We grasped
Our glasses
With fingers
To lift them
Up high
With ease
I said
“I don’t ever want
This instant of time
To cease”
I told her
With caresses
“I admire your skin
It’s soft
In the future
If our paths
Do link and cross
Then I’d like
to believe
You’re the prize
I’d win
A bride to be
Betrothed”
“If you were
To be my wife
We’d tie
And hitch
The knot
Our married
Life
A gift
From God”
“On our
Wedding night
It’s a delight
To kiss
And touch
And might we
Possibly
Have a baby
Crying in the cot?”
“Now
I’m trying
To think
A thought
It’s that
We go together
Like birds
And trees
Earth and sea
Or air
And breathing”
“Your skin’s
As smooth
As butter cream
You’re the utter
Meaning of beauty
The nut or seed
In my fruit
That’s appealing
And juicy”
“Come and be
With me
My sweetness
I’ll adorn
You with
A piece of
My jewellery”
“Your name’s
Not known
To the world
Some say its
Beatrice or Susie
Only I know
And it’s a secret
I choose to keep”
