Ernestine and the Wolverine

Ernestine and her friends sweet sixteen Jean Irene Josephine and Pauline Dolled up in glamorous aubergine velveteen Dreamt of being harvest queens on Halloween Living it up Eugene drove their limousine Directly to the drive-in theater widescreen And there He was larger than life The Wolverine With his deep hypnotic eyes of aquamarine Twists and turns unforeseen in out and in between For something not much bigger than a magic bean Escaped the guillotine somewhere in the Philippine Plenty of action all for a figurine of Byzantine Hearts pitter patter larger than life The Wolverine With the dreamiest hypnotic eyes of aquamarine Back home Ernestine tossed her poster of Steve McQueen The pristine one torn last week from a hip teen magazine There was a new heartthrob on the scene Sweeter than a bowl of ice scream topped with praline Sitting to write her love letter to The Wolverine Seal it with a kiss colour and scent of tangerine Submitted on March 25, 2018 for contest LOVE LETTER II sponsored by VIV WIGLEY - RANKED 5TH
