Out of the Blue

Out of the blue I searched for you, Under yellow skies I walked, With scarlet red the things you knew! The black lace talked and talked I found you thumbing on the road, Drifting south for a change of pace, Your suitcase was hardly a load, My heart began to race. A game was lurking in your eyes, I wanted in to play your sin. Fortune’s wheel did not disguise The roguish plans you held within. You took the keys and off you went, With gaping mouth I stood My heart inflamed with discontent, I whimpered all I could. With bold resolve my feet did go, Dust and sweat led the way. What did tempt I did not know, But hidden fires held my sway. Marching like a highway man, Of dreams untold to think about, I tried to chart your steps and plan, Whose saucy tease I had no doubt. Feline ways invite soft prints, Invisible shades eyes large make, I saw the method in your hints, By subtle fumes my nose did stake. I tracked and looked and never quit, To find your world and magic curve, But at some point I had to admit, I wondered if I had the nerve. I hung my head, I sang low tunes Echo’s hope was just a trace, So I took to heed the passing moons Oh your purring heart did I chase. As though you saw my forlorn look, My ears you tapped with engine fire, Behind me came your line and hook, Smiling in my car you took. Get in you said with lips to bend, With a grin that spoke of lazy miles, To you my vows could but commend, So sure were your entrancing styles. I swaggered in next to fate, Forever gone, here was now, Praying for mercy on this date, Still like a mouse hearing meow. You throttled up and off we flew, The wind and hair was just a blair, If my better half only knew, The forbidden things I would dare. The ride was smooth and oh so cool, Skin touched skin and all was one, Kissed by heaven’s secret rule, Ay there’s the rub, just have some fun. Salvation’s road leads to crime, Heat and sweat are natures beat, Lemons aid the bitter lime, To overcome what might defeat. Out of the blue I searched for you, Under yellow skies I walked, With scarlet red the things you knew! The black lace talked and talked.
