Wine & women

Wine & Women

In a little Spanish town
by the sunny coast
there was a Ferris wheel
and a carousel,
near the docks.
We sat holding hands
telling lies, and drinking cola,
through a straw when her
father came, dragged her
away by her hair dark,
shiny hair
Cowardly,
I did nothing,
to make matters worse
I drank the cola she had
L eft behind;
came onboard,
midnight and told
another lie
