For four years I've longed to shout 'Adios!'
It's time for you to go,  Donald J. Gross
Shove those burgers down, Chubs
Play with your balls and clubs
You're crude, belligerent and bellicose

Anderson called you an obese turtle
Who'd...

Remembering last night whilst I contemplate
We sat down to dinner looking out across the bay
Playing footsie under the table in loving display

Scented candles wafted their presence aired

It's different now than it was back then.

Remind me with your loving gaze,

Silver threads amongst the gold
They have  a story to be told

Of balmy nights and satin sheets
Of hands a touching and kissing feet

Lying in a bed of flowers
Steamy fun under the shower

Legs entwined tongues on fire

Tell me silly things that make me smile
Caress your fingers across my brow
Lie next to me and snuggle awhile
Time for us just now

Why do we have to be adults
Responsible for way to much
Bills won't pay...

Whispers at eve marry wisps of steam over red eye
And beneath the table my feet finds yours for a footsie
Where we hope God's seven eyes will not see,
No wide-eyed moon, nor the barista to pry.

Mad love
 Crazed stares 
Please share
Visionary 
Eyeing those hips
From afar
Like ships in the night
And meeting like this

You so ripe 
Me so willing 
So giving
Gracing a page
Our minds
Memories won't be 
forgotten
Won't be denied
Those hips 
again...
