LITTLE RED CAR 2015
Looking out to the sea
where the sky cuts in two;
Palm Beach seagulls are drifting 
on currents like they do;
I can feel what they're riding, 
it's a soft summer eve,
and I hear every sigh; 
as they whisper sighs I believe.

There's a girl on the beach, 
she has eyes deep and blue,
in her smile is a fantasy; 
reminds me of you;
but she's been too long sitting 
in the sun, by the sea,
and the boy she hopes to meet, 
reminds me of me.

If I think long ago, 
to a love I once knew,
she might be part of everything, 
maybe even you.
But she folds her umbrella, 
then she tosses her hair,
and she smiles "I have to go, 
but I don't remember where."

As she walks from the beach, 
I can still feel the blue
of her eyes touching me ,
and reminding me of you.
As I think where you've been, 
and I wonder where you are,
I watch her drive away 
in her little red car.

It's that same little car
just as firecracker red
when I penned every word
as you drove through my head.
