The early stages of a relationship that endures is filled with sweet memories. First impressions, bold flirtations, sweet sensations. Those memories come flooding back, bringing with them a longing for things to be, at least for a little while, as they once were so long ago.

So sorry for this late response Nomi and thank you for the beautiful review.
My husband is recovering nicely from heart surgery so hopefully we have many more tomorrows.
Grandson's brain surgery while he was traveling in Taiwan was also very successful and he is back home with family.
Everyday is a gift and we feel His blessings everyday.
Thank you again my friend.
Blessings to you and yours.

This is a beautiful poem, it has so much love in it. There is also a wistful quality to it, a little sadness as well. Your words flow so effortlessly, I'm so honored to have read it.

Comment from Terry Broxson
Janet, I like your poem. The imagery is vivid, and can see everything. The repeat of the last line is well done. Your note makes the story a little bitter/sweet as life and age catch up. Excellent. Terry.

Comment from Paul McFarland
This is a good one Janet. In your last stanza, you switched to the past tense. You might think about using the past tense in the first three lines of all the stanzas.

A lovely poem with perfect meter and rhyme. Good alliteration throughout. Your poem conveys so many memories. It was a joy to read. You've worn a lot of hats.
