Red-Dress-Fabulous Goodbye

Oh no! What are YOU doing here? I haven’t seen you in a year! But I’m sure it’s perfectly clear, I’m still red-dress fabulous, Dear! You thought you could steal my spotlight? You sauntered in like it’s your right. But now you know, it's no fair fight— I’m red-dress fabulous, tonight! Surely you see, it’s my parade! You’ve been upstaged. You’ve been out played! And now your welcome’s been overstayed, there in my red-dress-fabulous shade! It's getting late and you should fly- I bid you, red-dress-fabulous Good-bye! January 15, 2019 Poem of the Day ~ January 17, 2019
