Combat Boots and Bikini |
 |
|
Twenty four hours in country
A break before reporting
as trainee
Under the afternoon sun I make a bed
In the
sand of the eastern Med.
The beach was full but had
nice scenery
Several women in all kinds of bikini
If I
said I didn't look it would be a tale
I was a young
red-blooded male.
It had been a month since my
divorce
Preparing for training in covert force
I was
not there hunting at least not yet
One piece, two piece,
blonde, brunette
I was enjoying the day sky so clear
When the goddess did appear
Not tall, not blonde, but
beautiful to me
Her curves filled the tiny bikini
She walked with an aura of confidence
That I have not
seen on the beach since
Arguments against her beauty are
mute
On her feet comfortable combat boots
The
lovely lady filled me with intrigue
As she donned combat
fatigues
I remember her with no remorse
Lady of the
Israeli Defense Force |
