Scarlet Begonias and the touch of the Blues by Kathryn Reid

Scarlet Begonias and the touch of the Blues
by Kathryn Reid

Prompt: Begonia
prompted by: SpringDragon, during Sketch Fest #71 (February, 2016)

As I was walking round Grosvenor Square Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air From the other direction she was calling my eye It could be an illusion but I might as well try, might as well try She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes And I knew without asking she was into the blues She wore scarlet begonias, tucked into her curls I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls In the thick of the evening when the dealing got rough She was too pat to open and too cool to bluff As I picked up my matches and was closing the door I had one of those flashes I'd been there before, been there before Well, I ain't always right but I've never been wrong Seldom turns out the way it does in a song
