        I have an experience I want to share,
        with those who can relate.
        Remember thirty years ago
        "making out" with your first date?
        
        It happened to me just last night.(10/20/03)
        My innocence caught me by surprise.
        Kissing a man on my couch felt right.
        
        Blushing and giddy, I remember those days.
        I'm thankful for a blast of the old days.
        No more a dried up flower.
        No more looking at the passing hour.
      
        Young again, new horizons to seek.
.       I'm ready to cross that slippery creek.
        He asked me out next Thursday for a date.
        Tonight was the night, all I did was wait.
        
        I guess I slipped on that slippery rock.
        I'll no longer wait for that man to knock.

Julia?

I have felt like I have been walking on moss barefoot forever . . .
*smile*
that fool knows not what he has missed
this I know in my heart
and you, m'dear . . .
are far too precious of a gem
to be wasted on golddust

Excellent write.

I had an uncle who, though troubled with many character flaws, taught me an important lesson.  He said, "Women should be kept warm, and not kept waiting."

The advice has always served me well.

That was a High-Low reading ride! I was so glad for you ~ then I was so sad for you! Mind you, you really do sound strong. He awakened the giddy young girl with the butterflies! Now you just have to find the right man to enjoy the fruits of the other man's labor!

You were just getting primed, my dear! You are awakening!!!

Loving hugs,
EA
