The Girl On The Street (Late September In Manhattan) Poem by Eugene Levich

The Girl On The Street (Late September In Manhattan)

Rating: 4.5


She walked by so quickly
Her beauty touched only like a whisper
About twenty or so
Impossibly lithe, lovely, and slender
The Goddess Diana
Small upturned breasts
Apples in the Garden of Eden
What the Italians call
'Piccoli ma sinceri'
[Small but sincere]
And for a second under her dark hood
One glimpsed a pale pretty face
And blond hair
