Age In Love Poem by David McLansky

Age In Love



My lover's bounty does amaze....
She surfeits as she sings my praise,....
Pleasing as she tantalizes,....
As we entwine and fantasize; ....
Where would we be had we first met....
When we were so much younger yet,....
Had we been spared such long regrets....
The wasted time, the needless debts; ....
Had we when young had chanced to meet....
Upon some busy New York Street; ....
My life assured with her support,....
Would have bespoke a sane report; ....
And she been spared the agony....
Of loving him who longed to be....
Free of her, her loving arms,....
A grievous insult to loving charms;
But as we laze about the bed,....
And as she stokes my weary head,....
I lose my bitter attitude....
And kiss her cheek with gratitude; ....
That at least we have this twilight time....
As we watch the sun decliine.
....
