Baby


Baby, you cannot imagine how much I love you.
Yep, I can feel testosterone floating around,
niggling and needling the back end of my brain.
The boathouse was the hot spot where we blew
six hundred dollars in naked serendipity.
We giggled as your legs closed behind my neck;

I read Bukowski by lamplight…
Damn it! I swear your eyes turned to pure violet,
in those couple of sighs, as our lips gave a quiver.
No need to close eyes. The fantasies of love were
a hot topic to be enjoyed, a tingle of the skin—
the raising of follicles.

I miss you baby, I miss your lopsided smile and
crazy blond curly ringlets that fell and rolled
back and forward on a full swell of ecstasy.

God! That was forty years ago!

I love ya baby. Whatever, happened to us!

Hi John,

Wow! I like the sound of this! I'd only modify or change one thing, the word "indifference." To my mind, I don't think "indifference" can ride on a full swell of anything. What about substituting "ecstasy" or "joi de vivre"?

Sounds like a great time!!!

Peggy

John, an interesting memory? And why spend $1,500 to be naked when it can be done for free? Wheres the serendipity in that? Got to love those hormones...lol. I liked it, just was that one part of a little confusion.
Maybe the ending should be.. whatever happened to us... as I am sure you have change as much as she. By the way you just gave me a great idea for a poem.

G'day, Peg.

Yeah, I made the change and a few others.


G'day Steve.

Not my experience (worse luck). I was reading (Bukowski) and I've tried to copy his style.

I've altered a few glaring errors.
