Dark Berry Skin Girl

your full lips
your long luxurious
nappy hair
that full curvaceous
derriere

that bouncy step
that chin in the air
you scare me
thrill me
make me swear

if I could carry you
everywhere
your smile 
your scowl
that purple towel
you wear

those little toes
with the auburn nails
drive me mad
make me sad
that I can't
carry you to work
eat you on a platter 
like just deserts
