Thank God I lived through it without too many mishaps. I don't ever want to relive my youth. |

The trials and tribulations of youthful love described so well in this charming piece! The short verse length (like stop and go) added a sense of youthful indecision which played beautifully with this theme...all the while keeping the tone light and upbeat. Very appealing combinations!

It makes me think of the movie Splendor in the Grass. Beautifully done! A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes. |
