Green
Love is like the green, green grass of home,
in heart and mind where’er one may roam.Quote - Poet’s own.
The lady loved to roam in moonlight’s kiss
searching for romance and magical bliss
Her heart a flaming inferno of fire
hot-blooded intensity of desire.
Stalking around in dark shadows of the night
beneath the moon and silvery starlight
With flirtatious purpose kept under wrap
enticing lovers to enter her trap.
An irresistible web she would weave
for those foolish hearts willingly deceived
Alluring beauty attracted her prey
once bitten there'd be no getting away.
Emerald green eyes, dark lashes flashing
ruby red lips pouting at those passing
Tresses tumbling down, a golden headdress
a velvet wrap to embrace her finesse.
She walked with lithe grace of a feline cat
purring softly when someone made contact
Pulling them in with each trick in the book
making sure intentions where understood.
She'd love and leave them with no afterthought
too many to count, lovers by the score
No one ever asked, they just wondered why
she lived as she did till the day she died.
Her spirit lives on in a twinkling star
looking out for lovers where'er they are
Still as exquisite, still in love with love
arranging love affairs from up above.
Princess of love, many hearts she melted
when she walked planet earth in green velvet.
