The New Girl

My friend Ally asked me to write a poem for her drawing and this is how it turned out!

There was a new girl in class today
She had long blonde hair 
And light eyes that wandered the room.
And when she walked by me
I smelled her sweet perfume. 
She wore an oversized jacket
That seemed to swallow her whole.
And when she looked at me and smiled
I knew she had a kind soul. 
I wanted to ask for her name
I wanted to get to know her. 
But when the bell rang 
She was out the door all the same. 
The hallways were crowded 
As I looked for her blonde hair.
But she was lost in the sea of people. 
She had disappeared into thin air.
