Can anyone remember the euphoria of new love? Of doing things for the first time – or rediscovering new things with your significant other? This is a simple love poem celebrating firsts – maybe not as metaphorically rich as my usual work, but nevertheless the way I feel …. This piece will be shared with d’Verse Poets Pub for Open Link Night – starting Tuesday 3 PM EST. Enjoy the poem 🙂
FIRST
First
Kiss
Heartbeat
Skipped at
First
Touch
Goosebumps
First time
Linked
Sync’d
Body
Mind
Soul
Made whole
Complete
First
Time feeling
You shudder
Uttering
My name
A prayer
To stay
Right
There
Yes baby
Oh God!
First tear
Fearing
Time apart
Starting
Anew
Fresh
First….
But nowhere near
The last….
Passion's Pleasure 
Sweet, staccato memories.
