Recently on my stroll by the river
I caught a sight made me shiver
In the water, sleek and wet
A girl such as I could but wish to get
Strong hands, fingers lithe and long
Streaming water a tinkling song
Lovely hair, blonde, wet, streaming
I thought I must truly be dreaming
Between her breasts aquatic ripples
Didst cavort around perky ripe nipples
Half lidded eyes were milk chocolate brown
Lashes a curved road to mythical towns
Lips so red curved in a smile full and wide
Made to place kisses that will always abide
She looked away toward the setting sun
I wondered if she saw me would this fantasy run
Struck dumb I stood and stared at this vision
Of graceful beauty beyond elegant precision
She arched her back, a sight to die for
I prayed she would stand taller for me to see more
She rose and stood, I thought I would die
All I could do was whimper and sigh
My mouth went dry, my heart pounding
When behind me a hound began sounding
She jerked at the noise and spied me there
I glanced toward the hound not knowing where
Just wishing were anywhere but there
When I turned back my fantasy girl was gone
Not ever knowing my heart she had won
Perhaps was a fairy, a magical creature of fae
Now I spend my days thinking what to say
If ever again I espy this creature
Whom every night my dreams do feature
Like a story of old my heart I am giving
For an unachievable forest temptress I’m living
