The Girl Called Chartreuse


The Girl Called Chartreuse

Mischievous feet pattered about drowned blossoms
A cool breeze on a blistering, mundane night
An oddity running away to enlist in the circus
Sighs of Unborn Sunbeams

Bitter sweet; a nibble of heartache
A blatant surprise, unsheltered from gaping stares
Sprinklers throwing rainbows to the sky
A relaxed laugh tinted with colorful hiccups
Dreams of bubbling sunshine

Zingy, Twangy, a hint of sunrise
A crooked smile that radiates, blooms
Clinging to doorways on Jamaican lanes
Blooming trance of sun's rays

Elegant, sleek in the soft glow of night
Candy to the worrisome eyes
A small sprightly thing grown far too fast
A warm reminder of winter's unyielding grasp
The dying hum of sunset

Chartreuse
