In the Mood For Love Again

I dream of the lovely times we spent 
Nurturing our new found love.
   
The past is lovingly recalled in quiet
Hours, hours spent thinking of you. 
Each new day is an adventure, yet
 
Moments from the past flash back when
Ordinary routine has me reminiscing
Of our wild and youthful  
Days, when we couldn’t get enough of  
 
Fine wine and sumptuous dinners with
Only the two of us to contemplate our
Romantic trysts, whenever we could unite.   

Love always lingered long in 
Our thoughts, but alas now the 
Vice of time has us in its grip as we
Endeavor to keep the fires of desire burning.   

As we grow older, our love deepens into a
Greater understanding of what true love 
Avows. It shares a mental, emotional and physical 
Impact upon the life we have built together; 
Never ending in desire, trust and contentment.

Dear Connie, The type of love you describe in your last verse is what we all hope to find. Thank you for reaffirming my faith that it still exists. Make the most of every moment together, even when the embers of desire seem to wan. Love, Carolyn

Loved this acrostic; hardly noticed that apart from the poem itself you had to stick to a long given title!! it flowed along so smoothly. I have no doubt this is a winner:) // paul

well, talk about your difficult challenges. YOu are better at THIS kind than I am. The acrostic one with end line was not so hard, connie. Kind of like this type I guess but time consuming. Now you have me wanting to try this. But don't know if I can pull one off as good as this one!! BTW, I can do all I do because I am not always babysitting a little kid and cleaning my house. haha
