Act your Own Age

Act your own Age??

 

I've heard this so often

 

How does one act at any age?

 

Did I miss a memo somewhere?

 

Tho I am getting old

 

My passion is still young

 

Giving you a " Knee Trembler"

 

Tight against a wall

 

Eyes only for you

 

My heart is yours

 

Your will is mine

 

Not in a hurry

 

Beauty is to be handled

 

Like a priceless work of Art

 

The Kiss from your Lips

 

Is an Orchid to my soul

 

Love often these days is rushed

 

Texted often back and forth

 

In my day a man took his time

 

With the Woman he loved

 

" Act my Own Age? "

 

Gladly........

 

As I lift her

 

Into my arms

 

Taking her to the

 

Satin red Sheets

 

And past the White roses

 

On the stairs

 

Moonlight Sonata

 

Softly playing....

I like "Did I miss a memo somewhere?" And I love "Beauty is to be handled." "..Orchid to my soul" is effectively delivered by that upper case O in Orchid...a velvety image. Your last eight lines form a powerfully vivid scene, with color and touch, notes of music, smell of roses. Marvelous! ~~ Diana

May we forever not act our own age...
Those who say such things are old grumps and hags
that have no spirit and are jealous...

For may all be forever young at heart and mind as
this is what gives us life!

Many Moonlight Sonata's and romance forever!

Love and Light
Lily
