RED and WHITE

Girl of red

Girl of white

A girl whose heart 

Knew no right

Through the woods

Her feet did run

Without a leash

She knew all fun

Cape of red

Skin of white

A wild girl

The wolf of night

Sweet in day

With ivory smiles

At night she ran

She ran for miles

The hunters watched

The woods in dark

To make her blood

Leave its mark

She was too quick

Her feet too fast

Her fur the color

Of a grand ship mast

Until the man

The man of death

Came to kill

And take her breath

And that he did

With guns of hate

And speed the girl

Didn't compensate 

Girl of red

Girl of white

A girl whose eyes

Were the only light

Until the white

Turned into red

The girl, the wolf

Now rests in bed

Cute poem, luv it!!!

This is a fantastic piece. So much said in new few words and flawless flowed rhymes too!
My only qualm is 'And speed the girl Didn't compensate' broke it a little. The 'didn't' adds an extra syllable to the line. But I was just racking my brains for an alternative - like 'guns of hate, the girl could not, reciprocate' - which changes it slightly so doesn't work. But really, it's only a silly thing and might just be me :P

Really enjoyed this piece though, thanks a bunch for sharing! :)

An eerie spin on "Little Red Riding Hood" and I think fits in with the movie "Red Riding Hood" very cool play on the colors white and red.

It does seem a bit like Little Red Riding Hood. It seemed like the story was about a girl who can shape shift into a wold, and a nearby hunter shot at her thinking she was game. Or mistook her as an actual wolf. That's how I read it at least.
