Violet Lipstick

VIOLET LIPSTICK She was . . . smiling into me, Her eyes, in mine, asking me "Sir, what do you want to order?". I could not speak I could only see her violet lipstick. I quickly, shyly, adverted my eyes. I did not see that she was tall, shapely, black-haired and pretty - did my racial mind blink? Not. What does race matter when it comes to beauty and violet lipstick! I have never seen it before, violet, this exoticpassion hue on a woman, a goddess, or a black angel. I thought she must have beautiful eyes, but I could not stop looking at her lips. I mumbled my order and fell in love with life again.
