Teenage Kisses

Kisses so sweet, wondrous to remember.
Autumnal ones, under those sensual trees of September.

When loving winds beneath my uniformed skirt did blow.
And I wore your senior ring,which still in memory glows.

Jukeboxes, hamburgers and insatiable hilarity.
But most wonderful of all, 'twas the age of chastity!

Yes indeed...my friend, times have changed. I will take mine compared to now any day. I did not appreciate how great they were! The poem is as clear to me as that starry night.. Panagiota xx

It really was so different then, we courted and respected each others wishes. Such a beautifully innocent time way back when... and your gorgeous poetic quill captures that moment perfectly dearest Panagiota. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

Ann~ the human body is no longer respected as was then. The movies and TV and fashion are all sexual billboards. I went to movies with my friends when I was 12. Movies were about human stories not the glory of body parts. How wonderful it was. But, that was then....and those three couplets said it all. Panagiota xx and ^~^
