She was an unbearable beauty in red. Her elegant dress molded to her figure turned heads. She was unaware of the delightful picture she made, And when she spoke, only grace was conveyed. She wore red for her interview with the company President. He caught his breath when she entered, as she looked heaven-sent. Her enchanting southern accent surprised him, since it was New England. He had to struggle to keep focused, because of what he was thinking. She was way overqualified for the job, but he did not care. This exquisite creature would make a receptionist for him beyond compare. He hired her on the spot to start the following Monday, And he thought of her in anticipation all day Sunday. It worked out great, she was not just beautiful, but also smart. He almost wished he wasn’t married, because she had his heart. At least once a week, she dressed in stunning red for the office. She remained an unbearable southern beauty in red, as promised. Written 10/20/16 Contest- Unbearable in _______(Pick a Color)
