Poem -
~ The Accents Of My Youth ~
My Love and I
Did such soft kisses make
That I questioned why
My soul could not remake
The accents of my youth
She did, at times
Wonder why I could not contain
This most subtle lullaby
And simply replicate
The promise in kissing's proof
Brighter than virginal eyes
Starlit love did fast create
So many reasons why
Her sweet lips did make me so afraid
Of the accents of my youth
My love then downsized
By my own shortcomings, pain
Too slow to realize
Soft kisses were her hearts refrain
Too late, to kisses undo
And now, so long ago has arrived
And the simple fact that I
Am able to empathize
With a smile upon my face
I haveΒ come toΒ realize
The accents of my youth...

In the beginning when love is new and makes you float on air when life holds endless possibilities and and passionate desire flicker between glances so uncontainable that soft little kisses seem to tilt the other of guard by reminding confirming itβs more than just desire it a meaningful connection.... before kisses become tainted with regret betrayal or just fade into daily routine done out of commitment and duty... the first moments of love before we take them for granted...Iβm not sure if itβs how you intended for it to be received but either way it just landed my new love a few more unexpected lingering soft kisses
How groovy is that......so glad that it landed so magically well for you RAE RAE!!β¦.and the fact that it motivated you to land soft kisses on your new Loves lips..... is just an unexpected bonus!!β¦...I adore hearing little stories like this that were inspired by my poetry!!β¦...You're such a sweetheart....thanx so much for sharing this......and YES!!β¦..you interpreted this perfectly!!β¦β¦.sending lots of love to you and yours!!!......hugs n smiles!!β¦...T xoΒ : )
