Girl of My Dreams



Girl of My Dreams

I cannot wake up from this dream,
We blend like coffee and its cream,
You poured yourself; I gave a swirl,
Since seventeen you were my girl.

And, decades now I stop and stare,
To see your lovely face right there,
You kick your shoes off; heaven knows,
I thrill to see those painted toes.

But it’s not that; I want to hear,
Your thoughts and voice upon my ear,
And, oh, that girlish giggle, too,
It makes the man; a man for you.
