Sassy Lady
A blond bombshell beauty, 
Sensual cornflower blue eyes 
That dropped men to their knees

I watched that 
Sassy lady one night 
On the southwest corner 
Of Lexington Avenue 
And 52nd street

In a white dress
I listen to the
Click, click, click
As she walks by
In high heels

Mesmerized 
With the sway of her sexy hips
As she turns and walks away
With a glimmering
Spark in her eye
I can read her mind

To her surprise
Over a subway grate
Her dress is blown upward
With the blast of warm air

Embarrassed
She turns back
Looks my direction
With a playful flirtation

My excitement arouses

Hearing an approaching subway train, Monroe stepped onto the grate, having her skirt blown high by the train passing underneath, saying “ooh do you feel the breeze from the subway, isn’t it delicious.” Minds across the country were simultaneously blown.

"A candle in the wind"...so very, very tragic. My best regards, Eve. :) john P.s a pouting, vivacious and simmering sexuality that remains unequalled -- simply stunning!!

I have a cousin who is in her 20's and she idolizes Marilyn Monroe... She is a legend indeed and her legacy will undoubtedly endure forever... This is a lovely poem and tribute to her. Nicely done Eve!

I suspect more women than men were attracted to Marilyn, who could not compare with BB or Sophia Loren, but you did a great tribute! Aloha! Rico

You being a painter succeeded in painting with words a legendary beauty as Marilyn! What a tribute! Excellent dearest, Eve!
