The Eloquence Of A Lady

As she stood before her mirror, and straightened her pretty hat,
rearranged the flowers and feathers, and fussed with this and that,
her eye's sparkled as she knew he would see the beauty there,
when he would take her to lunch, and gently pull out her chair.
Her dress was long and flowing, a lot of Victorian lace,
not a bit of fabric could be seen trailing out of place.
Soft and gently folding, it caressed her soft pale skin,
the only thing maybe lovelier, may be the beauty she has within.
Linen gloves complete the look of this lady's eloquent fashion
and even as he takes her hand, the warmth beneath holds passion.
And for one night, they will drink a fine sparkling wine
and speak of love and beauty, from another time.
When the night is over, and she is left alone at last,
the mirror will once again reflect, only a memory of the past.
But, she will at times take down the hat that will be stored upon the shelf,
and every now and then become once again, her charming eloquent self.
