Superhero

Superhero

Her red curls the fire,

The wild untamed flames.

Her eyes the fury,

When she proved you wrong.

The smile when you shake your head

in disappointment.

I watch her when she works,

Though she thinks I'm brooding away.

Her swift pace,

And orders,

Spread a smile on my face.

Sometimes she catches me,

and she sends a wink my way.

Before returning to her duty,

"Serving" the citizens

of London.

I can almost see the red cape on her now,

flying,

swishing around the world,

in a matter of seconds.

When she's not doing her job,

She takes her time to rest

her superpowers.

Sometimes I visit her then,

Though she doesn't know it.

I drop a kiss or two,

for ever superhero

Needs one once in awhile.

She sings a merry tune

To herself when she's baking.

Her voice a power strong enough

To make you smile.

Sometimes she concentrates

Very, very hard on something.

So hard, that I swear the thing will crack.

When she has a child around,

She spoils him.

Her powers a motherly love.

When it's just me and her...

We laugh until there's nothing to laugh at,

And we'd laugh at nothing.

Her devotion,

her hope,

the glint in her sparkeling hazel eyes.

Too bad her costume,

isn't skimpy enough.

She rescued me from my past,

brought me back to the present.

To you she may just be

a normal, pretty girl,

But to me she's my savior,

My beautiful,

wonder woman.
