Cousin … 0508-2k12

Rating: 5.0


The slacks clean and creasy pressed
At home comfy and casually dressed
There she stood in a blue top loose
To let life and confidence ooze
Fresh and flashing an infectious smile
Its writ so clear without any guile
Hands loosely held up as if to say
Where he gone with the clubs to play
blue silver garland blends so well
as do the watch strap and sandal shell
wedding ring worn and its glint
shimmers and shines a forceful hint
like the white painted classic door
and the deep blue rug on her floor
no common rug lies at her feet
classic and paid for with dollars neat
oops! dint see the golf set by her side
or lush green swaying in a front yard tide
gulp! .. :) …I'll just clam up and silent be
I can hear footsteps and it maybe he… ;)

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
(11 July) It was her birthday, I guess 56th. Met her after a long long time, cousin married as a teenager and went off to the new worlds…unavailable and unapproachable.
In search of…. :) , she was….blessed,
And she got it all…diamonds, fancy cars, kids to best universities, jet setting to Hawaii and Fiji. Hammocks and surfing.
Happy successful and brimming with the cool confidence money and love lend, she was just as charming as I remembered her as a toothy teenager.
I bouquet in hand went to meet her and there she was….. a few lines to commemorate the occasion
