Steppin' Out

I saw a pal of mine in town
all dressed up to the nines,
hours of preparation and
the result was divine.
Crop top, Denim miniskirt
jet black killer heels,
feet at forty-five degrees
God knows how that must feel.
Sashay past the building site
wolf whistles and remarks,
they all got no acknowledgement,
reaction? Not a spark.
Cool, aloof, just striding on
the pace really unhurried
I honestly do have to say that
Colin- you've got me worried.

Aye, lad. Derbyshire born and bred, me duck. Yes, you're right, a gentle nod to Lou Reed.

G'day Viv... just imagining the look on your face when Colin made his presence is enough to giggle at let alone him stirring up the testosterone on a building site. Thanks for the laugh Viv - Lindsay
