Red Ribbon Sally

Red-ribbon apron drawn to her spine. Tilted red hat in the air. Black shining hair bundled in back as Sally stands simple and fair. Her mouth stout with beauty. It's light the moon's surface. Lips scored in finished pride and grin drawing love to a purpose Her stance like a doll. Her shoulders gone limp. Plush are her arms and form without crimp. Her smile soft as canvass. Her spirit abroad. Humble to a tee and loved to a nod. A skin lit and glowing. A mask demure. Her coco brown eyes guiding and sear. A face staring humble. It's secrets inside. Questioning; thoughtful. A love to abide.

It's a nice poem but I feel it could use a little more rhythm and rhyme. Thank you for sharing!

I agree with you Suzzane. The 8th line especially took away from the rhymthm. Thanks for saying something. All too often comments won't criticise.
