dream girl


she came through the door — six foot four

a warm wave spread out over the floor


she came to everybody’s full attention

from another dimension — beyond convention


all legs and curves and dressed to impress

 wearing red spike heels and a little black dress


  passing through the crowd with a hint of a smile

she stepped her stride in a sensuous style


she surveyed the room, stopped, and turned to me

she asked if this was the place to be


I assured her grace that this was the place

one look at her face and I had a case


she said, hey honey — you’re my nominee 

i’ll show you the way — come along with me


well the dreamed kicked in and we made the scene

she took me to a place I’d never been


i was always on the outside — looking in 

a door opened wide and we went within


a beat took over and music started

lights flashed colors and the crowd parted


she danced real slow with amazing grace

she rocked in rhythm — she filled that space  


she put on her show — I was mesmerized 

beyond anything i’d fantasized


the spotlight flickered and dimmed down low 

the music stopped — so did the show


i was there in the dark — all alone

my alarm was buzzing a groaning drone 


i opened my eyes and she was gone

i was in my bed — and it was dawn 


dream girl gone — dream girl gone
