it was the sixties
a flower child and I were discussing
the revolution and what it meant
we agreed it was about new morals
as we spoke
her eyes intently searched mine
I got up to leave
she spoke; her voice
whisper fresh as was Eve’s was
before the fall
I obediently sat back down

very intriguing
making for a host of thoughts
both innocent and sinful

A persuasive age Jerry, very well documented in your poetry.

Had I been in your situation, I would have sat back down too. When one is under the spell of an intoxicating love, one should not drive.

And now wouldn't I just love to know what she had to say. It's always the quiet ones... Very intriguing!
