Love Button

Check out my book, Seedy Town Blues Collected Poems on Amazon.com

A long time
ago
when I was
a teenager,
I had a
wonderful,
tender-hearted
girlfriend.
She was patient.
I was wide
awake, and green
as a frog.

She said,
don't rub it so
hard, you will
hurt it.
Think of it as
a new toy you
discovered.
It's small, and
you need to be
careful.
It isn't a
pimple that
you are
trying to pop.

I can still smell
her hair, lilacs and
pond water.
And on
gentle summer
nights, I hope someone
is being kind to
her love button.

We never forget those moments, they are unforgettable and etched permanently on our mind, to play back at will and smile at who you were and what you became.
If you could log into Netflix to watch them, it would be on constant loop anyway, so sit back, relax and enjoy the show! ☺

Thank you, much appreciated.
