Do you remember?


from the ABC set shamrock's ramblings

Do you remember that summer?
You - just moved here -
knew no one!
We met;
smitten!

Do you remember that touch?
You shooed a fly
from my brow.
I tingled;
blushing!

Do you remember that kiss?
In the leafy hollow;
the lakeside bench.
Hesitant, brief;
Magical!

Do you remember that love?
It excluded all others;
our eyes only!
So captivating;
complete!

Do you remember that vow?
I vow it still,
I love you,
always will;
promise!

Thanks Jason, I call it my 5-4-3-2-1 style lol. Start with 5 words in the stanza and bring it down to one on last line; bit of fun and there is probably an official name for it but I don't know it; I'll have to ask Ewan, Val, Luigi or Jen ;). Thanks for reading.

Hi Tina, there was the usual 'oohing' and 'aahing' but I think she is becoming immune to my ongoing courtship at this stage LOL. Thanks for reading, glad you liked ;)
