Budding Romance (poem) by E T Waldron on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on July 27, 2009

When I was younger and mingling with young women that caught my eye,
it was much before anyone coined the words "hooking up," and matters never flowed as quickly as in your "Budding Romance."

Nowadays, you can meet, socialize, familiarize, romanticize, marry, fight and divorce and do it all in a matter of days. But your love poem "Budding Romance" makes it sound like a magnificent adventure.

My goodness, Eileen, where were you when I was looking around? With your "short calendar," we might have done it all and saved a lot of wasted time.

I enjoyed this immensely!

you have set it all perfectly right Eileen -- moonlight, the surf and breeze -- a love in its infancy, perhaps -- an event to fondly cherish and recall, assuredly -- peace and love my friend -- Jon Michael

A night on the beach? you kidding me Sis? you ain't gonna get me for less than three weeks! with enough Captain Morgan Dark Rum to put "that" smile on my face as the moon comes down on the horizon to take a deep in the seas.

This reads like a poem at the start
Then turns to a story of the heart.
Passionate. . . .
Deliverate. . . .
Moves quickly and ends fast.

Eileen,
That wonderful turning point evoked, the moment when both agree and know what they want...even if it's only for a while, but who knows? I love the night images, the moon especially.
