That Girl In the Dress

Finally I've made it to paradise, surrounded by the sea Tranquil blues in shadow, are what it's peripherals be White buildings reflect the sun, an image I'll never forget To watch our sun disappear, the most beautiful of sunsets Whilst the night comes down, such beauty continues to be My eyes now in capture, to the sight that confronts me She stands in proud like stance, a lady unknown to thee Tanned, so beautiful I witness, impressed my eyes do see Torso shaped with black, white lace adorns it's low It's the she that wears it's colours, that makes it's beauty flow Hair of dark curls hang, like the "Gardens of Babylon" Flavours of life emanate, my heart appears in throng As I sit here in La Ola, on paradise by the sea It's where I witnessed that girl in the dress, captured, I am thee http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/lorena-2.php

I wonder if you live near the sea James. I guess most places in Scotland are not far from it. I love your poem on this enigmatic lady with curls like the "Gardens of Babylon" So descriptive for my imagination.
