A Study in Scarlett <br /> <br />A wistful sadness in your eyes <br />Says all you need to say.. <br />Your heart desires privacy <br />Now that love has gone away. <br /> <br />A legendary beauty- <br />A star of screen and stage <br />You’ve always been before us <br />since a young and tender age. <br /> <br />Mother Nature was most generous- <br />Most think you live in clover- <br />Blonde hair, blue eyes, the perfect skin <br />And cups that runneth over. <br /> <br />Life can serve up curves besides <br />The curves you proudly own. <br />To make you think, like Garbo, <br />that you want to be alone. <br /> <br />True, there will be other loves <br />and other roles to play. <br />Today you act the stoic <br />Now that love has gone away<br /><br />John F.
