Fountain

I want to eat Pizza
While wishing on a star
To taste the taste of happy
By being where you are

We’ll choose to be silly 
Not afraid of mistakes
Skinny dip at midnight
and skip pebbles on lakes

Why not dance together 
While howling at the moon
Or become little children
and watch a cartoon

A world infused with laughter 
can change how we think
From this fountain of youth
We’ll both gladly drink

For nothing could be better
Than sharing it with you
Because getting into mischief 
Is a blast if there are two!

Gershon Wolf Date: 5/9/2021 6:14:00 PM Sounds like cool fun, pure serendipity... As long as it doesn't end in marriage, perhaps it'll never grow old. Does that sound cynical? I think it's realistic. Marriage takes more than just goofing and spoofing to make it work. Having been married more than once, I am 'the voice of Experience.' -- Yeah. Sure. lol. Every relationship's unique. Forget everything I just said. Have a ball! ~ Lucille and Ricky Ricardo. Login to Reply Richard Lamoureux Date: 5/10/2021 4:17:00 AM A fun comment. I married my sweetie 27 years ago and we have been getting up to mischief ever since. She is my fountain of youth.

Daniel Turner Date: 5/8/2021 6:58:00 AM An ex-con (an old friend of mine) used to always say, "A partner in crime, guarantees you'll do time" lol of course, you are talking about playful mischief. This poem reminds us to cut loose and enjoy life. A very positive way to start one's day. Good job, Richard.
