I met George one spring day as he cruised by- so SEXY, he was a d r e a m y dream on a big motorcycle; and I was so young and at a lovely, fanciful age, a butterfly, we spent our days r i d i n g the country roads. our nights under the stars in parks and beaches, KISSING, I could not bring him home to my parents; he was w i l d untamed and a free spirit, on SOARING wings, and oh was he- r o m a n t i c. George was my blue sky and I was so in LOVE with him, one day he said to me- lets go to Florida- We will leave for Daytona Beach TODAY! I was thinking of mother and father not approving, hesitated, but the idea of the o p e n r o a d was appealing; I emptied my bank account, packed some stuff in an old backpack, and better JUDGMENT left behind in dust, we left. oh, it was wonderful with the w i n d in our faces, our black leather jackets FLAPPING and the road in front of us; we stopped in small towns along the way, slept in cheap hotel rooms making l o v e , I thought this was romance. We arrived in Daytona Beach and spent two AMAZING weeks, nothing fancy, just LOVE that I will never, ever forget. _______________________________ September 21, 2016 Poetry/ Free Verse/Young Love Copyright Protected, ID 16-831-609-0 All Rights Reserved.
