Flash and Go

Their eyes give away their youth. Smiles shoot the room as girls appear... What can they do to impress? Turn on the charm as best they can. Females will always test their limits... Silliness - not beyond their age. Speaking in tongues that only youth can understand. Girls acknowledge their existence... Perhaps they have a chance. Quickly they move from subject to subject. Girls giggle with secret approval... All the while, protesting. Life is difficult in the Flash and Go. Girls to be attended... Youth, the true aphrodisiac! I wrote this poem as I watched a group of teenage boys get flustered by some girls they knew, when I was in a fast food restaurant. I thought of bygone days, when I too, was vying for a young girl's attentions. I hope it brings back fond memories for the reader, as they did for me that night.
