Down on Nimrod Road

Now that run-down house is barely standing Down on the dirt road just off the highway But back then to us, it was our mansion A place where the two of us would go play Our innocence was never compromised Our hearts were fulfilled and bursting with love I satisfied your wants, desires, and needs With all the things you were deserving of From the very first time I touched your skin I knew that I would never leave again Nothing as good as that could be a sin Because I knew I loved you way back then

Hey Jerry love how your poem beautifully captures the essence of nostalgic love, celebrating the simplicity of a shared past and the enduring nature of a connection that was established "way back then."
