Cherry Red Stilettos In the Snow

2nd version of this poem

Glittering white powder covers the street

Growing inch by inch till the ground is covered

The sidewalk resembles an alabaster sheet

Fluffy flakes keep floating to the ground

Traffic moves slowly down the snowy roads

Making it difficult to get around

A taxi cab comes to a screeching halt

For a stunning woman trudges along

Causing his mind to do a somersault

She is wearing cherry red stiletto heels

Long slender legs exposed to the weather

One more impetuous glance he rashly steals

Before moving on his treacherous path

Down the almost impassible snowy road

Facing mother nature’s fury and wrath

Author's Note

I have two versions of this poem. I want to see which one gets better reviews.

I love this one, Kristina! The "cool", seductive woman (I bet she is quite the b***h!) in the 'compulsory' red stilettos...(am a sucker for those myself!) ;-)
This piece has a better, smoother, sexier flow than the previous version. The imagery is crisp, fresh and very vivid. I like this one better...great job!

[Dream Weaver]

Love the Tittle, and the write isn't half bad either :)

[Robin]

maybe the start of a series centered around those evocative shoes

[KATHY SUE SILLS]

I can still see the scene vividly, but the flow seemed smoother! Great Job!

[Marie Harrison]

Ah..this one's more alluring to me! Nice...

Yup, love the stiletto theme.:-) no mater what version it comes in.
Mixing the fury of winter cold/dangerous..with this womans who is probably hot and dangerous, make for a good theme.
"Facing mother nature’s fury and wrath"
Stilettos or snow...both can cause trouble......

A lovely poem of a beautiful woman walking in the snow, wind blowing her skirts long legs exposed and thoes red stilleto shoes, the effect shown by the cab driver is understandable. Very well written

[Coyote Poetry]

Brave woman try to be beautiful during a snow storm.I like the story and the reaction of the man. A outstanding poem. Great description.
