Honey girl, be as free as you can be! <br />I mean, go ahead, paint your toenails <br />Flaming Scarlet, or Honey Pink ~ ~ ~ <br />That is, if you so prefer ~ ~ ~ <br /> <br />For it is surely as true for me <br />As it seems to be for you, <br />That we fought for the right, <br />Burned our bras and everything ~ ~ ~ <br />Even gave up a girdle or two ~ ~ ~ <br /> <br />Just so we could wear flip-flop shoes, <br />And do a Jimmy Buffett song or two <br />As we danced on the beaches of our lives! <br /> <br />And Straight UP, Girlfriend, <br />Life does go on with its pleasures, <br />Even when we are alone, by choice... <br />We still have the voice, <br />Don't WE? ? , to say... <br />Well, whatever we want to say, <br />And DO whatever we want to do... <br />Thank you, I mean to say, <br />For burning the piano that WAY! ! <br /> <br />Scarlett Treat <br />October 15,2008<br /><br />Scarlett Treat<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/song-for-the-old-hippie-gal/
