P.S. Awtry Poet Rhyme

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!
