A fine poem for a great girl

I just finished reading "Heaven on Earth: 101 Happy Poems", as I told you before. I wanted to share with you some of the best parts or maybe the best poem I read here, or the one that made me feel happiest, as it was suppossed to be the purpose of the book. However, I preferred to pay a homage to one of my best friends and one of the weirdest girls I've ever met (if we bear in mind that being weird for me it's the top of virtues,). So here you have a poem about Mary Lou, by Kit Wright. If you read it aloud you'll find it really musical, just like her. Let's see if this forces Lou to write more posts. 

Red Boots On

Way down Geneva,

All along Vine,

Deeper than the snow drift

Love’s eyes shine:

Mary Lou’s walking

In the winter time.

She’s got

Red boots on, she’s got

Red boots on,

Kicking up the winter,

Till the winter’s gone.

So

Go by Ontario,

Look down Main,

If you can’t find Mary Lou,

Come back again:

Sweet light burning

In winter’s flame.

She’s got

Snow in her eyes, got

A tingle in her toes

And new red boots on

Wherever she goes

So

All around Lake Street,

Up by St. Paul,

Quicker than the white wind

Love takes all:

Mary Lou’s walking

In the big snow fall.

She’s got

Red boots on, she’s got

Red boots on

Kicking up the winter

Till the winter’s gone.
