Ms. Elkins

red the color of her hair
added color to my confused
little world back then
i sat in the front of the class
to watch her hips
move from side to side
so gently
when she erased the black board

one day she caught
me staring
and just smiled back

recently
someone told me
she quit teaching
and got married
but even today
she is smiling
her hips
are moving
slowly
gently carefully
from side to side
just for me
