A Geiser

A geiser of emotions
gush of sensations
cyclone of turmoil
at the mere thought of you

Whip lashed back in times
of innocence and passion
when life was bountiful
and time seemed... infinite

Memories sometimes are so good, and delightful. This is why I stay in touch with friends I have had for fifty years.
