Red Head

Tonight I talked to a beautiful redhead
She had me hanging on every word she 
said
I'm not trying to make her mine
A real good friend would be just fine
She has eyes bright as fire
And a smile that can inspire
Our little talk didn't last long
But it rang my bell and bashed the gong
Talking,  laughing was just nice
Wouldn't mind doing it twice
Hope she knows and understands
I well aware she has a man
I'm not trying to cut in
I'll sit back and sip some gin
She is fun and she is cool
But I won't be a fool
Just throwing round some words for fun
Quickly knocking out some witty puns

Thank you for the kind words. I have written a few new ones as of late. Blue me might be eligible for your contest..but that's not why I'm here. But a little glory is always appreciated.
