My Girl and Green

January 29, 2023
By Anonymous

Beautiful, young woman, easy to look at

Rich, materialistically and physically

Eyes brighter than the sun

Necklace down her chest, on the run

Hair swept behind her face, as if in the wind

Clothes of elegance drape down on her skin 

Emerald-green makes her skin more fair

My love for her is beyond compare

Her figure is stamped into my brain

I hope my love fills her heart the way it does mine

I want to put a ring on her, she’s like fine wine

I need her to be in my life forever

That woman could be mine with one simple question

Will this emerald-green girl marry me?
