Sweet Desire

My eyes widen and mouth starts to water then I’m drooling. 
My eyes follow her as she lightly steps through the room 
making her way, meandering in and out of tables towards me. 
I hardly notice her tight short black dress, stockings and white apron. 
See in turn never averts her eyes from me sensing my anticipation. 
As she approaches me my throat let’s a little gasp erupt into my mouth 
And then she lifts her arms out in front of her and holds out my prize. 
The biggest and best ever knickerbocker glory and it’s all mine.
