Southern Girl by Gregory R SchelskeThat damn girl
keeps a little bit of Savannah
in her pocket.
We found a reason to carry on-
me and that southern girl;
She's no belle-
but, what the hell?
She carries sunsets
in her pocket.
And of a love
that once belonged to someone else-
that southern girl
reached through the dust
and handed me her halo. 09/20/2011 Posted on 09/20/2011 Copyright © 2025 Gregory R Schelske
