She smiles and my no's quickly become yes,
She crooks her finger and I rush thither,
She purses lips...I yearn for a caress,
And when she frown's my hopes quickly wither.
There's sorcery within her comely stare,
The fragrance she sports confuses the heart,
Satins and silks are what she'll often wear,
And I must confess she doth look right smart.
She walks in social circles I've ne'er known,
She's Jaguar, Ferrari, and Rolls Royce too,
She's Chanel, Bejar, not dime store cologne,
She says not, "Goodbye," but rather, "Adieu!"
And yet despite these faults I still love her,
Even though I'm cotton and she is fur.

Thank-you passing shadows. I am glad you enjoyed the poem. A heartfelt thanks to you Endlessecho. You too nakdthoughts. LOL! Oh how appropriately your nick goes with the poem. Hi MorninGlory! Women prefer clean sheets do they? (Snicker.) Thank you garysgirl. I really appreciate all the comments ladies. Why did only women like the poem though? (Giggle!) This little sonnet was an attempt to describe my love for a girl whom I once thought to be out of muy league. Sometimes though words win a heart where looks never could. 8-)
