Beauty And The Death

BEAUTY AND THE DEATH

Beauty, I know she was called
Though I never called
Her pretty eyes, I'm sure
Made me trip some more
Her long legs, still so straight
A solid base for her figure eight
Ever felt her shapely curves?
I dreamt I did with my gloves

A block away she lived
I never could have believed
I always prayed for the day
We two would chat away
Just when I thought I would
I learnt I never could
She laid peacefully, covered with dust
Death had done its worst.
