The Secret of the two Ladie's.

I thought I would go to a
book shop caf'e now gone!
and thought may have seen
Someone from Abctales there

Thinking! a lady who would be most likely'
carrying books and a large pen
and glasses perched on the end of her nose'
perhaps a scarf around her neck
with a clasp of a rose

So I would surprise her and
dress up to the nine's
When I got there the wind was howling'
would she come'
I was getting ready to go home

I went up the steps
on to the verandah
there she was already there'

I looked'and looked'again
blinked! and blinked!
but couldn't think'
as I looked through my
'Rose colour tinted glasses
Oh! No!

we were wearing the same design dresse's
I looked at her and she looked at me
We didn't know whether to laugh' or cry

So I said "Hello are you the lady from
the Abctales
"Yes" she said "you must be julie"

She was sitting at the table
over her arm hung black stole
with snow flake crystals on
and a tassle at the end plus a bead.

she was wearing a light and dark green dress
a low V front and beads
then it went into a vent from
a tight waist around her hips
and flowed out from her knee's

down into a fan tail of dark green pleats
with silver beads

An overlay down over the green
came into edged border's into v's
and dotted crystal droplet beads

On her head was a black cloch'e hat
with a sparkling spiral again
of crystal beads

her green dropped earrings to match
around the band of the hat
she had sewn Abc
and wearing bangle of green
plus the ring'

Mine was in pink with a cloch'e hat
and a crystal spiral on the side
twirling down from my neck
with a pink bracelet and a ring

My dress swirled down into pink
and white stripes
backless!
with a strap fastened into snake's head
rippling down around the bodice as a tail'

We both laughed!
when we got over the shock'
and raised and chinked
our glasses of champagne'
her little finger stuck out like a curl'

Above us was the glancing moon
as it looked down on some branches
overhung'
they had all the same
coloured crystals on

Of pink white and green
"Silver-Spun-Sand" had done it all
as the moon whispered'
to her you are the poet queen.

This was just a special card and I put
2 character's including me in,that's secret
and described as the card is painted with 2 ladie's and in dress, only for fun!
hence Title is altered now.

Julie - this is so beautiful. Your work, i.e. grammatically, spelling-wise, etc. improves by the day.

As to the content, boy - that must have been SOME dream!! How did you know, I have a fascination with snakes...and beads?

Well done;-)

I cant believe how your words are forming and flowing so eloquently. I am stunned!!!
This is in my humble opinion your best work to date.
Keep them coming :)
