The Time of Love

***Collaborative by father and son...*** I'd like to tell a story Of romance at it's best I'll speak to you of deja-vu :F: And you can dream the rest This story is not a story It's of truth you see This woman who has caught my eye :S: And how our relationship came to be At first it came quite slowly Then quickened in its pace The first time that I held you :F: Placed my lips upon your face I looked into your eyes And in translation I was lost I felt you warmth and gentleness :S: my breath turned into frost The midnight moon is glowing Our bodies are entwined I felt the beating of your heart :F: And knew that is mine When you leave I blow you kisses Upon returning I hold you tight Your beauty is magnificent :S: I'll adore you with all my might Some days I'll send you flowers The candies on its way Our weekend trips to Mexico :F: Lets pack, be on our way I'll take you to the Virgin Islands Or to the south of France But when we are in Mexico :S: We'll do the salsa dance We've had a few cervesas' Three or four scotches too In the twilight hours :F: I'll whisper I love you See I'm a little different I drink tequila with l lime But when dancing ends and night time falls :S: You will be all mine In the morning hours When we decide to wake We'll drink our coffee darling :F: Sweet love again we'll make All through the night we're fixed On fulfilling each others needs So when the sun rises :S: There are no romantic pleas I've awakened to your pretty face Now twenty years have past My heart still beats our rhythm :F: This love is meant to last In our older years When life has past us by Our minds deteriorate and we cannot walk :S: But our love will never die The hair I have upon my chin Has quickly turned to gray For all our years together :F: It's time to finally say We're still one pea stuck in lifes' pod Our love is here to stay :S: Created by Jared L. Pickett & Richard Pickett....

this poem is really amazing...father and son writing together.. you obviously have very similiar styles of writing.. you two are the two peas in a pod... why not write a poem about you and your father for the contest..
