Look Beautiful
By Steve Baba


She hurriedly
Walked down the
Cracked sidewalk
Applying the last
Bits of lipstick on
Her full lips,
Wispy strands of red
Hair not yet put in
Place, her pleated skirt
Still wrinkled, but when
I saw her as I waited on
The corner she still
Looked beautiful in the
Early morning sunshine.
