My Brownie Man!
I met a boy
With a disarming voice
That sends shivers down my spine
.."Darling," says he
On the other end of the line
bringing me to my knees
and setting my heart on fire
A moment of blur
Like a deer caught in headlights
As I hurry to gather myself
He notices my nervous quiver
An all-knowing smirk begins to form
On the corner of his perfect lips
A tiny sigh escapes its ruby bondage
He calms me in an instant, as I melt
In to a puddle of nothingness
Burying my face in his chest
Butterflies explode inside my darkest depths
As he bends down to whisper
.."I'm not going anywhere."
His fingers fidget behind his back
I peep sideways in anticipation
He chuckles at my childlike innocence
Like a skilled magician
Pulling out a hare from his hat
He produces an object
That will forever tug on my heart strings
A guitar.
My eyes widen in pure joy
Honey-coated melodies in the air
.."Give me a smile and just stay a while." sings he
I lie on my tummy listening intently
The music stops, and so does my heart.
.."Is everything okay, darling?" he croons.
In a squeaky voice, I manage a faint yes
.."Brownies, I want!"
He throws me on to his shoulder
Like a soldier following his commander's orders
.."Brownies, it is.." he chuckles.
As I squeal in excitement.
