Ruth Walters - Their Clothes Define Them

She's wearing casual
and she's wearing smart
it defines who they are,
it's a gift, its an art.

Red is so brazen,
so risqué, so hot,
some like to pretend
but we know they're not.

Kaftans are cloaks
to cover up flab
on fat days or hot days
or just to look fab'.

Blue is real cool,
says hello, it say hi
and when worn at night
it says 'lick but don't bite'

Off shoulder is sexy
and always so trendy
although not with loafers,
or those with round shoulders.

Tight jeans are a must
if you want to show off
in your size zero figure
and watch every mirror.

Me, I'm so old now
I don't give a damn
in my torn old string vest
as I waltz into town.
