since knowing sha
I've had my closed eyes opened
to places I'd never gone to before
she fooled around with my heart
time marched on
would that we could have ran away, baby
drinking cheap
California burgundy 'neath the skies
be hippy-like
following the sunrise
sundown and the black night sky
we're not young
still, I'd like to live on the edge together
each day
consoling each others' injured hearts
make them well
I know I could not
visualize living any other way
ahhh . . .
I'm having grand feelings
just thinking of what might have been
for they are eternal

Can feel you smiling here... Enjoy your happy poems. And maybe I say it too often, but it is true that love looks good on you!
