FRAMING THE PIN-UP GIRL

His hands, they frame and catch, the pin-up girl.
Tanned hands, they're hot - he drops his sweaty palms.

     Her lips - plum succulence. Hair’s suavely curl ~
     a brilliant cinnamon. He has some qualms.

Approaches beauty queen with plastered smile.
She feigns to look away ~ that’s just her way.

     Performance broken by his slipshod style.
     Turns out, they're moon and sun ~ like night and day.

The opposite attract of belle and nerd,
A curative for broken-hearted ~ bliss.

     A certain bit of trouble is assured.
     Before the final curtain falls ~ love’s kiss.

He’s coy and lovable and kind of dreamy.
She’s brash and pushy but she’s rather steamy.

I read most of the poems in this contest. Yours stood out to me as it allowed me to get into character. Rather than a long story, you concentrated on a moment, a feeling. "Her lips - plum succulence. Hair’s suavely curl ~ a brilliant cinnamon. He has some qualms." A perfect description of a man caught in a true moment of romance.
