She was wise
She was smart
With Athena’s
Crooked smile.
Flat footed, she ran,
Piper in the sand.
For a time
She was mine
California girl.

Ah those tunes the piper played when we were young. To recall is bliss, like a timely kiss from the little Miss.
Thanks, Dusk. Yes Indeed.
Short, sweet, and on point. Loved it.
Thanks, Trenz.
Love the pace of this tripping piece of romantic nostalgia - - reading it twice embeds that smart gal in my memory too now Jerry......... great stuff.
Thanks, Fay. A bright thread in the tapestry of me.
We have such wonderful memories Jerry.

Thanks, Andy. Yes, we do.
acute characterisation detailing, in your succinct writing
helps define a crisp image, for us to relate with
although, whether that matches your 'California gal'
is somewhat unlikely..
a fun shorty, thanks for sharing Jerry
Nonfiction. She was real the runner was a Polynesian girl that taught us to run flatfooted in the sand. It works.

Thanks, Neville. Orchidee can get his own girlfriend, should be a number of church ladies that would like a hymn writer.
