A LOVE SONG - PART 9

FAREWELL AUNT SARA, REST IN PARADISE

The passing of Aunt Sara had her thinking
about him and all the fun times they shared
the back and forth, the ups and downs
a battered heart beaten beyond repair

Homegoing services for Sara V Adams
Private Memorial
Location and time
disclosed only to the family

As she dressed for the service
the memories attacked:
the shower - the closed lip kiss
the drying off and lotioned up - losing teeth and
fish funeral
the pantyhose - first cooked lunch
the blackdress - things are starting to run together
perfume and accessories - prom night, the bitch Ingrid,
the stripper and her baby
makeup, hair, look in the mirror---SNAP OUT OF IT
this mess is crazy she thought

She walked in signed the book, got a program took a deep breath
and started walking slowly looking straight ahead
right then and there she made up her mind, she was not sticking
around
O my she thought, Aunt Sara looked like she was sleeping, not a
wrinkle in sight, O wow, cant be, was her wig on crooked

His thoughts as he watched: DAMN, she looks good, look at her
all grown up, I want her back-no,no I love Ingrid

After she said goodbye and a silent prayer, she turned and
double-timed it outta there, speaking and making eye contact with
no one

WHO WAS THE BODY IN THE HOT BLACK DRESS - Derrick thought, as
he watched her walk out of his life (for now)......

What the what- ain't it funny how things happen?
It ain't over, Stay tuned-----

A LOVE SONG - PART4

(INGRID IS ME, THAT'S WHO I BE)

She lived 600 miles, on witchita road, way out in the country
4 brothers and a dog, right next door to paw paw an them
only see her in the summertime, she was a fun lovin kinda girl
she quickly became my friend and a new lovesong began
you see I got pictures of my own, fun lovin summer fun:

(he reminisced)----


Ingrid with a chocolate face, smashed in a bowl of ice cream
Ingrid and a butterfly, with a flower in her hair
ingrid and dog smiling for the camera, what a silly pair
Ingrid walking in the rain, hair and clothes soaked
dripping wet
Ingrid in a sexy pose, on the hood of a car
it was her brother's car, a black and orange corvette
Ingrid in some cut off shorts, a halter top to match
whenever she would dress like this, the air in my
throat would catch (leave me speechless)


One summer day, I was 15, she showed up on the back porch
with a picnic basket, dressed in a
long sleeveless 36 button down dress, naked as a jaybird underneath
(unbeknownst to me at time)
we walked a long country road, in the sun, past the lake
to a opening in a field of lillies
I knew something was up, after we set up are picnic
I fed her grapes and then she sucked on my finger (seductively)
backup, forgot to mention the thermos which we poured
into plastic cups, the liquid was stronger than water
her lips, my finger, the liquid, the feeling intensified
to the 20th power

I opened those 36 buttons, one by one with my teeth
all I remember after that was:
some hair pullin, some kissin, some tossin, some turnin
some swearin, some tearin up that, some scatchin, some
kissin, she was on top, then I was on top, then we stop
to come up for air and drink from the cup, back at it
some kissin, some touchin, some lovin- we did the
horizontal dance for hours, right before the sun went down
(my first love)

A few days later, Ingrid watched from the window
as we loaded up the car to head back home
everybody was outside saying there goodbyes
paw paw and them, 4 brothers and a dog
next thing I know, Ingrid comes from outta nowhere
we slobbed each other down like a xrated video
and did'nt give a damn who was watchin

I knew one day I was gonna marry that girl
(my first love)
it would be some years before we'd see each other
again but we always kept in touch
so now you know who Ingrid is and fun lovin summer fun
and now I cant wait to tell you about the night I turned 21.........

A LOVE SONG- PART2

(AFTER THE WOW)

He ran his fingers thru his hair and said:
Man, how come I never knew about your feelings
I had'nt a clue until today
I'm seriously shocked, stunned and completely blown away
I mean really we never entertained the thought of crossing
that invisible frienship line
we've never kissed as grown-ups and now your telling me
your idea of me and you is nowhere close to mine
your my homie, my buddy and a really special friend
this is a joke right, I'm being punked...ok I give up,you win
her face told it all: no joke,I'm dead serious, I'm not playin
the tears welled up in her eyes, can you feel what I'm sayin

She said:
so the dinners, the pictures, vacations that we took
the dances, the movies, we even shared are very first book (Dr.Seuss, of course)
and I bet you dont even remember are very first fight
we got so mad at each other, ok lets forget about that night
O remember the time your aunt Sara fell and her wig came off
it was wrong, but we laughed anyway
O and what about the time we left Sparkey in the car with a bucket of chicken
he left no crumbs, ate all the chicken, BONES AND ALL--(lol)
O and remember that day we, STOP IT- HE YELLED, I see what your doing
lets get back to the present and talk about this song
yes, some great times and memories because we've known each other for so long
and I love you back in a special kinda way
But you see, I'm getting married to Ingrid, in Vegas
we're leaving today------


BAM!!!!!--bet you did'nt see that coming (oooo it ain't over)
