Painted Toenails

[MHenry]

Painted Toenails

As they advance
Air shudders
Hearts flutter
Wrapped in silk
Taut and confident
Atop spiked leather

As they advance
Time stops
Eyes follow
Rich caramel
Proper curves
Painted toenails

She carries
A toy poodle
An expensive
Designer purse
Dark sunglasses
A book of poetry

She wrote

MHenry - the way you wrote this, I could follow your eyes' progression - and found it particularly endearing that they rested on a book of poetry - she wrote - how very appealing anytime and anywhere, but particularly here in the Rhymezone! Now you'll have to excuse me because I want to go and paint my toenails - and work on that book of poetry! This made me smile - thank you.

[MHenry]

Thanks, RLW. I am glad you enjoyed this. It could be you very soon! Keep polishing your apple! And yes, painted toenails are essential. I still like red. Not a fan of green or blue.

As I read i followed her perfection across the room. End the end I wondered, was she carrying a book of poetry, or was she poetry

[RhymeLovingWriter]

I like that rhymetime - it makes me want to be her even more!

[MHenry]

Splendido, Maestro! As always, you bring it all together in the end, this time a delightfully enigmatic one. Top drawer; more!

[MHenry]

Thank you for the encouragement, grant Sensei! Perhaps, I will follow this vixen a little further down the boulevard!
