“How does it look?” she twirled,
And I knew she was asking about
A lot more
Than the dress.
“It looks really great,” I answered,
And she knew
It was about
A lot more than
Her silhouette,
Or how the fabric hugged
Her curves.
“Then I’ll take it,” she said.
And we smiled because
We both knew
It meant she will take him, as well.

Ha ha! As long as that trend does not include wearing biker-shorts as evening wear or tittering on super high heels or eating only grass or somethin’ then, sure, why not … 😉
