Enticing
By Jeanette Cheezum

Many men have tried to tame her, but to no avail.
Her radiant smile touches your heart when the
sun shines and warm winds blow across her body.
Charming green eyes and long limbs create
mystery while welcoming a newcomer, the military
or neighbors.

She sheds tiny tears to strengthen and huge ones
when angered, spreading fear to those that get in her way.

History proves her capability to seduce.

Pardon me, I’ve neglected to introduce you;
her name is Virginia Beach.

    I was enticed at the beginning of my visit to your wonderful words and when I read the last line, I thought “Well, of course!”
