Where She Likes To Be

Such a fierce wonderful girl with whom I fall in love. Who is she?

————

I am mesmerised.

Falling in love with that fierce, pony-tailed girl

Whom I trail down the path past the nut trees

Following the squawks of black cockatoos

Where she stops to take stock.

Opens her umbrella

Letting it give dry comfort as the rains start to pour.

She is singing and knows I am watching

Opening the door to the kitchen, shaking herself

Peels off her raincoat

Big baggy thing that it is. Yet I like it,

It’s green and blue and grey - easy like she is.

Giving me an apple, she stares,

Her eyes are shining aqua and they

Sparkle like the sea she loves.

I know that girl well – where she likes to be –

Better than you would ever believe.

For she is me

And this is the greatest love story.
