A Young Man To An Older Woman

Dear, you keep telling me that you’re too old, giving me reasons we should be apart. But all these things I’ve already been told! Please, darling, hear me now with your heart. You say they’ll gossip about me and you. Just let them! I’m young, but I’ve known so many women, but not one can do the magic YOU do. My wild oats are sown! Never more will I be looking around. You fuss over wrinkles, but all I see is our connection so sweet and profound. Always beside me, my angel you’ll be. Age doesn’t matter when you’re in love, so say yes to “us” and let’s give it a go! Dec. 15, 2017 for Julie Leigh Rodeheaver's "Age Doesn't Matter When You're in Love" Contest

Perky, good attitude this write does exude. You've got all the ingredients necessary for the age love mix. I thought we had to use the long contest name, well, actually didn't want to risk it. Good luck with your love sonnets! Love ... CayCay
