1986

When we first met, there was no stopping us, no matter was the time, or where the space, fulfilling urges, minimum of fuss we always seemed to find suitable place. Shop doorways, or the golf course (eighteenth hole) the walk home late at night ended in lust, to end the night in passion was our goal to take a risk fulfilling it, we must. You turn and take the duvet to your side I fight to gain possession of some heat your comfort, though, you will not be denied upon my back you warm your frozen feet. The years have changed quite how we play the game but then again I love you just the same For contest 'which of the four would you choose', sponsor Sara Kendrick 20th August 2016

She must love playing those games with you. How does she stop herself from laughing, you are so funny?

Great theme you chose and so quick getting it down. I am still mulling the subject matter. You have really nailed the whole thing beautifully. I'll admit to no similarities of course....lol SuZ

The cold feet, often seemed to have come my way. As a young man, I found that the hotter the gal , the colder the feet were. Looking back, at youthful follies but with memories of that pleasure which was so tempting to me. Superb sonnet my friend, a definite fav for me. Best of luck in that contest..

Makes a fellow want to take up golfing. In this case increasing the number of strokes would be the preference. ;0)

Thanks, Connie, I'm not sure what the weather where you are is doing now, but you wouldn't risk a romp on the golf course over here at the moment x
