Puppy Love Poem by D Loveday Morris

Do you remember when we played hide and seek?
How much fun it was to wish… to walk and hold hands on the street?
When you were my puppy love and I was your girl;
I was your everything, you were my world
Do you remember?

Do you remember the strength and passion of our innocence?
Uncomplicated by sex and violence
How much fun it was to wish… to anticipate the first kiss
Yet so many years have passed and we never tasted each other's lips
Do you remember?

Do you remember the Divi Divi Tree?
Simone is still is convinced that it happened in chemistry.
Your lips surprised me… I laughed; believe me it was funny.
Fantasy is so much different from reality.
Do you remember?

Yet nothing could have prepared me for the awesome man you've become
Like beautiful music to my ears; familiar lyrics and melody … like a song
Like a song I wrote… but I knew I didn't write
Here lies the answer to the question you asked tonight.
Yes! Yes! I will!
