Oliver Mckeithan Poet Free verse

The Love of My Life

The Love of My Life

Flowing tresses of.blond hair and deep blue eyes
We flirted, promising our undying love for each other
I was captivated by her girlish charm and wit
After nine steamy months it came to an end
I moved to a new school district to start third grade

Andrea Dietrich March 17, 2025 at 1:59 PM Just reading the comment below mine. You were not writing about Oedipus complex, were you? Oliver Mckeithan March 17, 2025 at 2:27 PM NO WAY!!! This is a true story of myself and a girl in my 2nd grade class.

Andrea Dietrich March 17, 2025 at 1:58 PM Haha. Such a cute ending. I remember crushed at that age too. I learned sadly at my 50 HS reunion the guy I had liked in kindergarten had died and he never knew I liked him Oliver Mckeithan March 17, 2025 at 2:28 PM Thanks Andrea. I think everyone at some time experiences this situation
