My Young Love

written November 30,2024

Contest by Emile Pinet

You held me close as night danced us away We welcomed the stars into our embrace You gathered moonbeams into a bouquet our love created a magical place. We laughed and loved, life was so full of fun We loved intensely, we had found our love We celebrated our days in the sun We fit together like a lambskin glove. Just memories now of long-ago past Our love was young, our lives free of all pain Our forever love: too fragile to last Your whispered love now a gentle refrain Yet, I'll always love you, deep in my mind The magic of our love: the rarest kind. 5th Place!

I especially love the lines “ Just memories now of long-ago past Our love was young, our lives free of all pain Our forever love: too fragile to last” soul touching really! Absolute pleasure reading this gem. Congratulations on your win. Sending you light always
