Note :
I decided to write a romantic poem today and this one is based upon
a very sweet memory of a very beautiful and sweet girl I once dated.
Sadly life got in the way, its pull on me to be wild and roaming
caused a split. She told me, if we split now, I will never take you back
and she kept her word on that. I plead guilty to losing her due to my
wild ways and search for ever more beautiful girls to date. When young
one thinks there is always more to be had! Thus oft throws away
precious treasure seeking that ever elusive, "more and more"..

Her Softest Kiss, Gentle Warmth It Sent Me Am I dreaming, I was once bold and young life was a new joy, great was romance sung, morn's birthed hot memory of night before rubies, gold cast upon every shore. Her bright smile, this soul rejuvenated her sexy charms had invigorated. I fallen warrior from love's battlefield just barely alive, refusing to yield, felt red sun bring on saddest doom and gloom as echoes sang, come now enter this tomb. Once her love, gave me strength to death resist as in love's deep ardor I did enlist. Am I now able to leave bloody soil rejoin former life with its boring toil, or hold dear her touch from dreams that renew to remember her true words, "I love you". Her softest kiss, gentle warmth it sent me love, desire to never from it be free. Am I dreaming, I was once bold and young life was a new joy, great was romance sung, morn's birthed hot memory of night before rubies, gold cast upon every shore. Her bright smile, this soul rejuvenated her sexy charms had invigorated. Robert J. Lindley, 4-04-2019 Rhyme, ( What Life And Young Love Both Recall )

Excellent! Since I lost my husband to cancer when I was 39 and now some 25 plus years have passed then, this is so relatable. Especially true is wondering if it ever all happened. Did I make it all up? That was a lifetime ago and seems imagined. I have his daughter to remind me but she is off to her life too. Possibly I imagined her as well (I think). This captures that ironic state for me. You handled the topic so well.

Thank you my great friend. I am so delighted to hear from you again. Yes, sometimes our memories tho' we know are based upon reality , seem to be fantasy- or is that ones mind limiting in a way to cope? Your poetry always awes me dear friend. God bless....

Thank you my friend. Sad truth is, there was much folly in my wild youth and its adventure seeking escapades.
