Poem

Recalling "crushes" I admire during teen-age time
Makes me chuckle with heart-beat's chime
Remembering responses of denial-rhyme...
Now, I confess my puerile grime.

Decades ago, a lad with his unique fad made me glad
As his boyish grin resembled that of my Dad
His constant cheerful countenance exclaimed he’s not mad, not sad
Since despite low grades, he seemed not to feel bad.

Another guy likewise won my favor
He was a college classmate showing faith-fervor
Asserting Scriptures with truth’s savor
Revealing his taste of godly flavor.  

As a lady of “conservative” virtue
Enclosed within social-cultural taboo
On “dating” I was innocent of the “approved” clue
As I acknowledged God’s wise view.

So, when I received love-epistles
From suitors with affection whistles
I let my parents read them against “studies first” bustles
For I trusted them in my youth feelings’ hassles.

Thus, midst teen-age delightful relationships
I’m grateful for pleasant wholesome friendships
Functional toward great adult partnerships
Engaged in great, good and godly fellowships*.


*1John 1:7 “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”
