Who Said !
Sky the shade of love beckoned
with sultry rapture
as our two night-driven ships
that crossed briefly
exchanged new fun of attraction.
Let who will condemn
but desire repaired aging helms
and put passion in sails
drooping with fade
while release flooded both decks.
Who said mature is too late !

Neva too old are we eh' and wot an absolutely splendid way of emphasising that very thought .. x
You do my work proud agen Nev..........no - never too old are we romantics eh - - -always and ever my grateful thanks for your in-put to that.
Good write Fay.
I won't say a swoony-type comment, as I've already got in trouble with Neville and a poem concerning a thumb! lol.
Thanks dear Orchi.
I do not want to age like wine, only to be drunk at the end, or cheese that turns to mold, rather let me age like the mountains, strong and solid to the very end.
Romance is good at any age, but love is handled best by experienced hands. - 'nuff said - Loved your poem.- Phil A.
I truly agree with your wise outlook on romance and experience Phil....... thanks for giving your viewpoint and for taking the time to read my few words.
Amen!
I like the jagged, sharp wordage you used purposely, poetry need not 'shout!' for it to express its passion -
as you so brilliantly demonstrate
Grateful thank yous for your read and comment dear poet-friend. So pleased you like the form and tempo of Who Said !
