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.
