Creature

There she sits, the redhead in the flower dress

Smiling shyly

Pretending not to look at me

A majestic creature, carefully crossing her legs

Her pale skin glowing warmly in the sunlight

As she gazes out the window

Fiery auburn curls circle her face

Hanging just above her long slender neck

Shoulders framing her perky bosom 

Casually engaging a stranger in conversation

With a playful curiosity the same as a child

She looks away and catches my eye

Dark brown moccasins bounce on her feet

Sunlight shining on her shapely legs

Revealing wisps of soft, tiny hairs

With a graceful gesture she lets down her hair

Teeth like perfectly cut diamonds shine between her delicate lips

As she laughs at a joke

There she sits, like a porcelain doll

Doe eyes full of wonder and intrigue

Pretending not to look at me
