Style

 

I’ve just begun

To reflect on the lessons learned

And one of the most important ones

Is that style matters

 

It started with an aside

A comment about dressing up

And going out

Just to have some fun

 

I took it a step further

Using that missive-

As a mission

To change my style

 

She rules with style

Absolutely stunning

And put together

Even when she isn’t trying

 

I decided to adopt it

Looking through my wardrobe

Searching out all the goods

I either neglected or forgot

 

It seems to matter

And certainly makes me feel alive

Being someone making the effort

And showing some spark

 

It’s probably the first lesson

Of many I’ll eventually come upon

But it’s a good one

 

And so it’s with some melancholy

That now it’s all reflection

But the lessons are there

 

So I’ll keep looking

And searching

To find the better me
