She Wears Her Elegance Well...... Poem by Francesca Johnson

She Wears Her Elegance Well......

Rating: 5.0


She wears her elegance well,
the woman with the long skirt.

Tall and upright
with an air of confidence and maturity
she approaches his table,
tossing her head,
and sits down gracefully.

Those long, long legs
fold over one another,
showing stocking-clad ankles
and black, classy heels.

His eyes travel up from her slender legs,
slowly,
and lock onto her smile.

Eyes join.
They linger.

He knows.

And she knows.

She raises her glass to his
and whispers 'Ich liebst du.'

He smiles.
