Johnny Mathis Was My Guy
When selecting some great songs to play, on dates, romance then to try;
No one got to a girl’s heart better, Johnny Mathis Was My Go To Guy!
“All The Time”, and “The Twelfth of Never”, were the two that never missed;
Their hearts would melt like butter, their lips would need be kissed!
.
We’d hold tightly in the darkness, his soft words would fill the air;
I’d caress their necks with one hand, the other stroked their hair!
We’d whisper in the moonlight, words of passioned purity ;
In an era when things were different, no fears for security!
.
Its innocence was beautiful, not like the insanity of today;
With girls the age of thirteen, wanting to go “all the way”!
So thank you Johnny Mathis, for this legacy you me gave;
These memories of my love life, and the virginity most girls saved!
.
.
In my great era
Girls were treated with respect
Chivalry always

I LOVE this LARRY!!..... wow! The brings back memories..... not that I was a big Mathis fan.... but those days of chivalrous nervousness at just holding a girls hand much less going in for the big score of a 'big kiss' !! That kind of innocence, like you so perfectly put it, ~

I Love you Tony!
Your glorious words make writing these narratives so rewarding.
To think that such a greatly gifted poet as yourself, bestows this adulation upon me, is the culmination of my joy.
With yours and Cherie's permission, I would like to send the first draft of my book, for both your brilliant insights.
I could not think of two people in the World that I would rather have read it first, than you and Cherie.
All my love,
Larry xxx
