In An Instant
In an instant, one small slice of my life, I caught her eye.
She was wonderful, blonde, charming, delightful, a princess in my mind.
I did not catch her name, but her smile, oh, my, well.
She was getting out of a beautiful navy blue Cadillac with red seats.
She was more exotic than the car; her date was a handsome creature too.
With dark skin and dark eyes that danced. He was delighted with her.
This was at least fifty years ago and I have never forgotten
A glimpse of her beautiful leg as she exited this fantastic car.
The car itself, or her date’s beautiful smile.
I do not remember where we were, but suspect in Des Moines
which would make sense as it is the only place we ever went for dates
when I was a teenager.
I have thought of these gorgeous creatures and this fantastic automobile
over and over in my dreams.
Unsure why.
