strawberry girl
June 13, 2022
Her eyes are a mid shade of blue-gray
They bring with them the scene of the ocean on a foggy day
The fog blocks most of the scenery
But through it
You can make out the blue waves
As they crash onto the shore
Then retreat again
Back into the fog
You could watch the fog all-day
It is not mysterious
But nevertheless
It is fascinating and cool
She reminds me of a summer strawberry
Her face is freckled
With a million little seeds
As many dots as there are stars in the sky
I’ve tried to count before
But I get distracted by her foggy-ocean eyes
Or her contagious smile
Or some joke that she cracks
She is bright and energetic
and friendly to everybody
Most importantly
She as sweet as a summer strawberry
