| Cro's Lost Love by © cromokee Well, it's Autumn here in the Adirondack Mountains....the leaves are changing to their Fall Colors...it always makes me lonesome for a Lost Love as this was the time of the year when I Lost her.. She had everything a Man would want...6 feet tall, Big Muscles, Mustache, Long Hair all the way down her back (none on her head....just down her back). and when she sprayed that Black Flag Bug Spray on herself, mixed with that Saddle Soap she found in the Barn,...MAN! It just drove me crazy! She wasn't very Pretty 'cause her upper lip pooched way out past her nose...but it was okay..'cause her lower lip covered it. Her teeth were kinda scraggly but they were great Bottle Openers. I remember in the Fall we would gather Grapes. I had an old Bath tub, that I propped up on some cinder blocks and put a bucket under the Drain Hole then I would fill it with Grapes and she would climb in...well, Her feet were kinda funny 'cause they looked like those Flippers that Scuba Divers use...but they worked real good on them Grapes.. I would play the Fiddle and she would Dance on them Grapes...Hah! I would watch all that Purple Juice come out of that Drain Hole!! MAN! I knew it was gonna be good Wine.. Trouble was ...it would stain her feet Purple! But when she painted her Toe Nails with that Orange Paint that she found in the Barn, it was down right Dazzling...to say the Least! Well, after the Grapes were done, I took her to Town to see the Circus, like I promised. .I shouldn't of done that...She fell in Love with the Gorilla and wouldn't come Home... So...in the Fall of the year when the Grapes are ripe...I always think of her...with those Purple Paddle Feet and her Yellow Dress... And sometimes in the Evening, when I'm sitting on the Porch I think of Her... Especially when I can't find a Bottle Opener.. In Sadness, |
