I Saw Her Standing There

Big occasion tonight. Spotted her on New Year’s Eve, eye catching in mini skirt and skinnyrib and dancing like an electric eel. Handing my resident girlfriend to a boy in a Sergeant Pepper jacket, I plucked up courage and crossed the room, even more fascinated the closer I approached. She flashed her beautiful blue eyes, lips tremoring in a come-on smile. I’ve never know what she saw in the scruffy youth but magnetic attraction works in mysterious ways. Years later the currents still flow - less electric eel maybe but more in a low voltage eco friendly sort of way.
