GAL
Stately, bright, delightfully
flamboyant
auburn hair in a free cut style
high heels, knee length skirt
intricate design golden earrings
choker necklace for perfect match
she walked down the street
V-shaped top well endowed
hips gently swaying, head held high
prompting comments of approval
causing pleased broad smiles.
She met her date at
a nearby café
happy, carefree, enchantingly enticing
her sparkling eyes, her loving lips
were more than he could bear
as he whispered in her ear
with the softest voice he could muster,
"Hey doll, love you, need you,
want you for my gal"
slightly startled she looked up
smiled, placed both elbows on the table
resting her head in the palms of her hands,
looked squarely in his eyes and said,
"If you get me a black pearl necklace
and a wedding ring, I'll be your gal
till the day I die."
