This is one of my childhood dream cars, a 1963 Split Window Corvette. I owned one once, a Hot Wheels model version, painted gold with blue and/or red trim if I remember correctly. She would smile at me from my bedroom nightstand each morning and I'd smile back, knowing I'd just awakened from my most recent dream of she and I cruising along the Pacific Coast Highway as her engine purred and rumbled alongside the beach-blanketed coastline.
Yes, I remember her. What a body! A curvaceous, sumptuous shell with streamlined contours which can drive men mad with desire. Just the sight of her awakens all human senses, elevating our awareness of beauty as a powerful energy force.
Her luxurious leather seats and inner compartment cushioning were built for comfort. She's not shy exhibiting her qualities by any means. With see-through-glass lenses all around giving the world an unobstructed peek at the tantalizing bliss that lies within her lair, she invites the attention. Or, as they say about the eyes being like "the windows to the soul," so too are her paneled glass apertures.
Overall, she is a stunning beauty to behold both inside and out, frontal and rear, if you can withstand the temptation of being mesmerized for life by her charms. At such a young age she beckoned me come to her, like a sea-nymph siren luring an enchanted young sailor. And I was touched/captured by her summons, as in the poetic lines of Pablo Neruda's poem "Poetry:"
And it was at that age … Poetry arrived in search of me. ...
but from a street I was summoned,
from the branches of night, abruptly from the others,
there I was without a face and it touched me.
I have been under her spell ever since. Whether you are a man who loves a pretty face with a gorgeous smile, or one seduced by a woman full of alluring power and fighting spirit, or just an art connoisseur infatuated with killer views of her double-bubbled rear end backside, you can't help falling in love with all her attributes and how perfectly they align together. And to top it off she is truly as beautiful inside as she is on the surface. There is a pure heart that goes along with her grace and elegance. But be careful, once a prisoner of her charms there's no turning away from her; nor would you ever want to.
