The Perfect Girl . . . (1/6/18)

untouched by the sun

living for the light

not afraid of fun

her vision gives her sight

her cat won’t let her sleep

he knows she resists

in her head thoughts creep

pats his with a kiss

worry is her friend

her best through hard times

faithful to the end

where the credits roll and rhymes

worthy of all she seeks

she’ll see it when she knows

missing her for weeks

the vine of silence grows

consuming velvet hills

grapes for a lonely wine

content from the chills

while resisting mine

how can i say

when will i learn

with nothing left to pay

only to her i turn

the game i can’t remember

its score i don’t recall

no longer will september

be the first to fall

many things are worse

being on time is late

birthright is a curse

the future merely fate

only once employ

blind faith in each life

that gun is not a toy

that blade is no knife

the church down the street

used to have a bell

no one i see i meet

and they can never tell

the perfect girl is near

for her the worth is wait

each message sheds a tear

all the words are much too late

all she needs is love

giving peas a chance

she fits every glove

you don’t need to dance

the perfect girl is a woman

her beautiful is tame

always warm her linen

mine her only scoreless game
