Notes About The Poem

Bonnie Belle

Bonnie Belle was a dear charming lass
Drove a pink corvette made from fiberglass
Lived in a tiny little house next to an overpass
Precisely with a pair of scissors trimmed her grass

Figure chiseled like an hourglass
Dressed the part as if upper class
Drank her coffee from a demitasse
But much preferred her brandy by the glass

Kept her eye on life through a spy glass
Looking for that illusive ring of brass
Finding clues here and there in every crevasse
With far too little luck, alas
