She was fair but she wasn’t
golden skin and sun beamed cheeks
love she chose whose to keep
almond eyes favored the sleek

golden skin and sun beamed cheeks
flirting heart fleeing art
almond eyes favored the sleek
her flower blooms for canny bees

flirting heart fleeing art
shy pretensions bold intentions
her flower blooms for canny bees
a tongue lies behind her teeth

shy pretensions bold intentions
love she chose whose to keep
a tongue lies behind her teeth
she was fair but she wasn’t

Pantoum, take #2
