Lake Como Sol Amour



Teened and tan,
Walking along gravel paths
with you holding my hand.
The sun so lovingly warm
Blessing our innocence.
The sound of Lake Como's
waves blessing the sand.
Your Hawaiian shirt open,
Your chest magnificently tan. 

In a train caboose people
used as a resting place,
'twas inside.....
That you and I shared a hug
and our first summer kiss.

Tis but a shimmering memory,
but nonetheless, of complete
and utter happiness.
The glory of the flowers that
surrounded that caboose..
Adds to these musings and
these ever free thoughts so 
eternally vivid~~in memory.
