Summer of Love

Summer of Love

A Story by Gomer LePoet
"

My first "Summer of Love"

"

Summer of Love


it was the summer of my 13th year

I had never known nor

had I ever felt this thing

the thing referred to as love


but I met this great looking blonde

at the pool that early summer

I was mesmerized

head over heels in love

she was my first serious kiss

3 years later she would become

my first attempt at love making


her name was Susan

I was so smitten I even

gave myself my first tattoo

her name "Susan"

on my left bicep


we were together almost

every single day

at the pool

at the bowling alley

the Friday night dances

hell I even took 3 dance lessons

just so I could hold her close


I never wanted that summer to end

and it did not end for 3 years


she eventually dumped me

for a really dopey dude

and even married him

it did not end well for them...


I had the tattoo covered

with the head of a Panther

while in boot camp another summer

not a summer of love


but I'll never forget that summer

hell I'll never forget that girl

she was my first

she was my Summer of Love
