Young Love

The wind took your hair like a flag

And you twirled

Until you were dizzy

Falling down

I heard you laugh

Looking up at me

And I fell in love

Right then

We ended up

In a heap

Of too many clothes

On a cold day

But you kissed me

And I didn’t care

I felt the sweetness of them

And felt a swelling in my chest

Then you turned

Wiggled away

Laughing

At my frustration

I couldn’t have wanted you more

If you were naked in my bed

You felt it too

And wanted me just as much

But i didn’t learn that until much later

We had much yet to learn

I chased you across the lawn as the leaves were falling
