Notes About The Poem

Coquette

well made up as she knew
looking sexy in shredded jeans
dilly dallying round high street
giving the eye to men
who all knew she was not worth it

Ooohoo! This reminds me of something I heard a man say once. He said he used to think some girls were a certain way until he finally understood that it was usually his own thoughts he was listening to because he couldn't possibly know what she was thinking. This was funny Victor. God Bless, JB

Thanks for the new perspective, Victor. The importance of being courteous is undeniable, in my opinion. My initial impression of life is that it's very odd. To read it was a pleasure in itself.

No harm in admiring her beauty and smile. She sure charms your poem, Victor.

I guess you mean by high street that her price or upkeep would be high and she would not want to do wifely duties. Well, I don't know because I don't go to high street. I have live right down on the border of poverty road but have enjoyed better times now for a number of years but we don't know what the future holds. Thanks for the visit to my page with such a kind review. Sara

Hmmm was it a dismissive eye? Or a come hither eye? ?? These days could mean a lot more. Still if she is a lost soul just say have a blessed day. I agree with being friendly. My first thought is that she has an alternative life style. Is happy being gay or bisexual. Lol

I never wrote happy in my poem. I would never write about gay or bisexual people. No offence meant of course.

Sounds like she's just out for a good time, definitely one to avoid. Tom
