The Lady In Red

 

The lady in red

 

Has caught his attention

 

He can't take his eyes off of her

 

On a cool autumn day

 

Walking to the bus stop

 

He sat down beside her

 

And he said

 

Hello lovely lady

 

Haven't we met before

 

She looked up at him

 

And she said

 

Yes I think we have

 

But I can' t recall where

 

It's a small town

 

We live in you know

 

Well I was watching you

 

From a distance

 

You looked so familiar to me

 

Then he chuckled and he said

 

Perhaps we had the same dream

 

Well she laughed and she laughed

 

He said I like your smile

 

And you have pretty eyes

 

I tell you no lies

 

I'm no stranger

 

I mean you no danger

 

Please do not be offended

 

Would you be so kind

 

As to have dinner with me

 

She looked up at him

 

With a silly grin and she said

 

I like your smile

 

And you have pretty eyes

 

I tell you no lies

 

I'm no stranger

 

I mean you no danger

 

Please do not be offended

 

If I say yes

 

I'd like to have dinner with you

 

Yes it's a small town

 

We live in you know

 

Perhaps we had the same dream

 

The lady in red

 

She caught his attention

 

He can't take his eyes off of her

This is a very sweet poem, one that lends clarity to attraction and of course she sweet, and mesmerizing as she synchronizes everything with him, matching wits for wits. His clever lines are out of the typical clich� pick up lines but he sounds nervous, as I think he met his match. The flow of this poem is like butter slowly melting in a pan, soothing, creamy, and hot with anticipation. The structure and rhythm merge like a bridge across the ocean and the message swallows you whole.

Aww.. how romantic..this sounds like a lyric...a beautiful lyric at that!

very interesting i like how the woman reflected his words like a mirrored dream. it would be something special if we did in fact share dreams with our pairs before we've even met them.. perhaps we do.. we just never remember!

great write.

Somehow you made this love poem work, even using often used lines. You still kept a newness to it. Good job.. Rain..

Very cool. And the picture is great.

This is a fascinating read.
How two strangers (maybe not) meet
with an attraction that seems mutual.
I enjoyed it. Leaves you to question,
'what happens next?'

Thank you for sharing :)
