The Art of Making Love

Sometimes I write as if I'm an expert When it comes to the subject of love On the contrary, no one is an expert on love Every encounter is like our very first We are so afraid to stumble that we do stumble We stumble over our words We stumble trying to do all those romantic things That all our lives we're programmed to do But somehow it never quite works out as planned As to what we envision love to be No, I'm certainly no expert but I'll keep trying That being said, the joys of love Whether simple or complex far outweigh Any lack of finesse that we might have So do your own thing, there's no failing grade Be creative in the art of making love!

Jack, I can't help chuckling. Oh, how I'd simply love to follow your advice, but, at 80????? Not many to practice the art on.

'Tis an art... there are no rules! Actually we all have our own rules and proudly display them as often possible! LOL (we are both in our 80s???) May luck be with you!
