spin the bottle our first kiss you asked my mom if you could take me out at the halloween party you crashed with my cousin and some friends you asked if I wanted to walk out to the barn and that’s just what you got..a walk to the barn and a kiss or two or even three concert tickets caught in the storm concert got canceled makin love in the back of your pick up truck under that plastic tarp with my cousin crashed in the cab. skinny dippin workin carnie barkin at the marks how we used to fight but we'd make up just as hard and just as long the day our daughter was born our anniversaries you call them our honeymoon when our daughter yanked out her 3 front teeth on a rope swing imitating the girl at the circus when our first granddaughter was born and we held her for the first time then our second granddaughter 6 weeks premie, and soo tiny we didn't get to hold her till she was one month old a lifetime we have shared half already and filled it with memories we have the other half yet to share and memories to fill it Enotneicna SLR 3-10-02 Words are my medicine. |

Those are some precious memories. I wish you many more honeymoons. Do you still go to concerts in the rain? |

You know I envy those words, imagine the memories you must have that you haven't even written about, so there is food for thought! And a poem right? I enjoyed a walk down 50 years with you, but hope to hear more sometime. The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. |
