    First Love

    Just what did we share Ann Henri,
    You and I.
    We were so young,
    And so much alive.
    Was it just the time or place?
    I think not...

    I remember
    the walk in the park ...
    I remember
    us seeing a cripple child
    trying to reach the sky ...
    I remember
    us wondering
    who your father was ...
    I remember
    the tenderness of your eyes ...
    I remember
    the scent of your skin.
    I remember
    the laughter...
    I remember
    the impossible promises
    as we departed ...
    I remember ...
    I remember.

    Never will I forget you,

    nor will I forgive life
    for making it possible
    to just remember you.

    Twayne

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.
