A Poem Written On My Birthday

Young Love I Envy Not Young love I envy not: Bemusing time Of upset hearts And inept kisses When lofty dreams With passion zoom Through twists and turns And dead-end chases— No, I prefer my love mature, In marriage steady, Two hearts content, When each brief kiss Renews a vow And each sly glance Stirs memories Of young bemusing love.
