when
he first saw her
she
was wearing bright
red
lipstick and a smile
that
took his breath away
yet
to his surprise
she
was very shy –
a
demure pink rather
than
a bold red
but
he fell deeply in
love with her anyway

Delightful.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I'm impressed that he noticed her lipstick in the first place. In my experience, men know nothing about makeup and would be too oblivious to notice what lip shade she's wearing
ReplyDeleteThe demure pink is what really counts! The superficial bold red soon washes away! Well done!
ReplyDeleteNice! Love it. May she rock both colors!
ReplyDeleteLovely contrasts of mood and personality. Nice one.
ReplyDeleteHappy you dropped by my blog. Besy Wishes for a splendid 2023
Much❤love
Maybe he fell even deeper for her...
ReplyDeleteLooks can be deceiving but that's not always a bad thing!
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone for reading and commenting.
ReplyDeleteSome lipstick is better than no lipstick?
ReplyDelete..
He fell in love with her spirit.
ReplyDeleteOutward appearances don't always match what's inside. I'm glad he discovered that.
ReplyDeleteNice one, Arcadia!
