Notes About The Poem

I Love Women's Fashion

Right angled square, to a perfect straight black, 
With a classical blue tinted shirt, 
And stockings that reach all the way up, 
Beneath the perfectly pressed skirt,

Or flannelette top, all chequered in plaid, 
Lazes over the T shirt in white,
With the wide brimming hat, worn over dyed hair, 
And worn well into the night,

Else you might see her wear a long flowing dress, 
Stilettos gripping her feet,
Holding a small leather bag, with her little white glove, 
Walking along the main street.

Fashions of women, from business to hip, 
To a nineteen fifty retro sublime,
Makes all women beautiful, in my small male heart, 
Bewitching me every time.
