Red Parka
Looking great sitting there with her hood on
It’s a red parka, like the start of dawn
She holds her jacket as she looks around
Softly she bows her head, looks to the ground
Her skin is like ivory, soft and smooth
Her tender smile comforts and it does soothe
I want to hold her near, I meet her eyes
Beauty holds fast as I start to realize
Her life is for me, she holds me deeply
Our stare allows our hearts to form singly
I touch her hood and I move it on down
Off of her head, and from her royal crown
I feel her awesome life force within me
I grab her softly and pull her closely
We bring our lips together and we kiss
I don’t sense the shy girl, I keep our bliss
The red hooded woman now holds me tight
She beams with a smile when she’s in the light
I can’t help but to return the gesture
Who knows what will happen in the future
