I'm in love with the girl on the escaltor
I wonder how long it took God to make her
With her kid red shoes
And her sheer silk stocking
What I'm thinking is really shocking

It's only a short ride but I have to take it
Some days I think I'll never make it
It's the skin tight skirt
And her case of leather
Her perfume smells like wet wild Heather

Sometimes I wonder where she's going
With her fine soft lips and her mid-riff showing
It looks to me like
She wears a size seven
My pulse speeds up as she accends to...Heaven

Everyday It's the same situation
She gets off at Pimlico station
She meets a man
I think It's her brother
Then she walks with him to visit their mother

Then I'm alone so I roll my paper
I don't know how long I can take this caper
I'm not sure
I think her name is Bernie
So again for work I'll take the same Journey

I'm in love with the girl on the escalator
I wonder how long it took God to make her
I'm doing this now
For over a week
I'll pluck up courage tomorrow I'll ......SPEAK

Something Lite

This ones from my ill spent youth
You know
When you spend your hours dreaming
Of tomorrow
And then
Tomorrow's here

Jon.....I enjoyed this; it is nicely portrayed.  I'm glad you took the time to post this piece from your "ill-spent youth", but I'm happier still that "tomorrow" has arrived for you.

I like this Jon.  I thought, has to be a man thing, and couldn't help but smile.  You're so funny Jon.  I can picture you there, struggling to speak but being held back by the awesomeness you placed on this girl.

And don't I know about that! Sometimes talking to some girls seems harder than lifting a public bus...that "man thing" affects male dragons as well, I guess...

Great poem, Jon! You impress me more and more with each post, and you're a great addition to the Pub family!
