Love Poem: So Long Ago

So Long Ago

With headlamps dark, my car was parked
Where moonbeams bathed a summer night
When fragile fingers found my grasp
And floral fragrance of perfume
Imbued in me a rich desire
To cant my face and taste soft lips:
	First kiss, first kiss, first sheer delight,
Her cool, fresh breath upon my cheek
As fingers, sleek, combed through my hair:
	First kiss, first kiss, my throbbing heart,
Wide eyes adoring dismayed face
As hand of mine whisked silken cloth:
	First kiss, first kiss, warm girlish curves,
Then bust, petite, beneath my palm,
A moment heady, flesh all numb—
	First kiss, first kiss, so long ago.
