Susan kissing Alan for the first time. 1979  

Photo Credits, that is me kissing Alan for the first time. 1979. I was 17, he was 20. He says he melted. A few seconds later we kissed on the lips, it was electric. 

Turmoil and Transformation, beyond imagination My first love, North Star, became my guiding light He swept me to the shore, I was alone no more Truly a one man in armor shining knight Bumping shoulders and holding hands a furtive kiss but few demands we had an early first love And though each went our separate ways we thought of each other many days And later when we met again, to have and hold as more than friends we became molten, magnetic, the tide Speaking to him is passion and pleasure was pure surrender to thought, emotion and pouring rhyme The only thing we two don't seem to have is enough time to make love, and entwine that deep sharing into the night But that is coming I know As sure as the sky is above We will make it all happen and make it right Because this love you see, is pure poetry it delights and excites us both alright And the glow all around Is here to stay for all time I can't imagine being without his love or him without mine We will build our love nest and love each other unconditionally never again lonely our lives provide We will care for each other in a long life together and be there side by side as one For he is my twin flame my dance partner my other half and our meeting was more than chance and far past fate It was a click of two into one and a glow as glorious as the sun passion and pleasure welded, fused and won Meeting was more than chance and far past fate - For Alan - Susan Manley (C) 9/30/2023

Your poem grabbed my heart at every turn. The picture was the perfect illustration. The ending, 'the click of two as one' resonated with me. A loving tribute and a beautiful piece of poetry. Have a great evening, Sara
