A girl's first date; she's sixteen. The older boy is a prize. He flutters hearts with green eyes - so suave and worldly-wise The young Adonis picks up Sweet Sixteen; he has a plan - they go to the county fair. Thrills are guaranteed! After a few scary rides, She trembles with excitement. Soon in the chill of the night, he will make his move. When atop the ferris wheel, he wraps one arm around her. As she snuggles into him, her heart is racing. For a moment the wheel stops, and their lips meet in a kiss. Oh, the thrill of youth's passion! Nothing else compares. Written Dec. 8, 2015

Oh, to go back to those halogen days of young love, Andrea. Now if we went on the ride, I'd probably drop my wallet and she'd get a nose bleed..... A nice depiction, Andrea, well done. Viv x
