All Aglow 1965 Poem by Terry Collett

All Aglow 1965



Tilly's there
by the pond
(her half day

off of work)
I meet her
in between

my work shifts
and we sit
watching ducks

on the pond
afternoon sun
shining down

on our heads
won't your mum
wonder where

you have gone?
I ask her
I'll just say

I helped do
stocktaking
she replied

I eyed her
sitting there
on the grass

we first made
love back there
behind us

I tell her
yes we did
and she smiles

looking back
in the woods
and Mum said

about mud
on my dress
and I said

that I slipped
by the pond
hoping she

didn't see
my hot flush
and grass stains

on my blouse
and did she?
I ask her

I don't know
what she thought
or she saw

but I was
sexually
all aglow.
