Catching His Eye

A smartly dressed lassie from Philly
Was quite adept at being frilly
She was ever so prim
When hanging around him
Something was special about Billy.

It attracted a bit of attention and Belle wrote a follow-up that was flattering! Thanks for your kind word.

The smart young lassie who fancied Billy - When near him she behaved rather silly - She showed off her jewels - Forgetting mother’s rules - Doing a belly-dance and a shimmy... Belle
