A Last Night of LoveA Poem by ashley k carrithersI am, sort of, a viejo - getting older like all of us and was recently graced with a latin lover in Argentina half my age and twice my beauty. We enjoyed greatly our sharings, then reality sighed.A LAST NIGHT OF LOVE
Last night, last love, last
look and we share a last sigh She. She is exquisite. She is
delicious. She is a bit younger. I am, out of a deep yearning,
looking for love. I see her And there is a tumbling,
sighing, slide into her. She. She is a rainbow of
goddesses, and younger. I am bedazzled, my hands,
lips move of their own accord. She succumbs to a wearing of
our wonderments " our love. She is a woman child, she
never heard of James Taylor. I still listen to him, I no
longer run miles, my glasses get stronger. She is lithe, dancing before
lunch, to my fond laughter. She " her body, enchant….her
aura, smooth beauty Embrace my would be wisdom,
and toss me on top of her, Her pulchritude overwhelms,
beguiles, and makes me a moth So young her flame, so many
suntrips have I seen, The math sucks, it won’t go
away, and lurks like a love thief, Peering out at us perps
sowing seeds of doubt. A bitter harvest but one I encompass
with new wisdom She is a lot younger, I got a
lot older as In a night of last love, she
cried while I held her beauty And slowly withdrew to a
solitude Graced with the presence of
miraculous memories Of this young young
mujer/chica, and of love. © 2013 ashley k carrithersAuthor's Note
