there was a girl,
a slight girl
with peppered flush cheeks
and golden brow
where heavenly sways
within her keep,

there was a girl
with lips ghastly glow
sweetly pale under
the glints of the sun
and the way the sea
foams on coral shores

there was a girl
with strong curved legs
taken like from a marble stone
and plump hips blanketed
like the gentle ***** of
a rolling hill

there was a girl
with eyes reminiscent of early dawn
the light of day which so few ever sees
the iris retracts as the brightness ascends
still retaining the speckled flecks
of a thousand floating stars

this girl was a girl
with no ordinary talent
and no great mind
yet with laughter like sugar crackers
crumbling in a hot potato stew
she held the weight--the meat
wrapped around her bones

she would hug her elbows
and bite her lip,
collect sweat beading on her skin,
sit in a quiet corner and ponder
what lays beyond the walls
which alluded to a great yonder
