Recalling.
I daren't stop recalling
the way we were.
We lifted the tightness
of age-convention
and fled to the informal.
We laughed at
life's blatant nod toward
autumnal romance,
we set all restraint loose
and as more care
opened doors for taking
life's offered pleasure
of love's new sensations
we stirred up bated
passion by gentle yield.
Time's passing has made
satin from cotton
placidly satisfied weaving
now pallid and gone
that ready fever of fullest
acceptance will
not be ever forgotten for
I daren't start to
recall what we once were
without teardrops
reviving every height
we discovered.
His love won mine
in those silver-gilt years.

Love in any season has its shining moment and with it its unique brilliance and timbre. These qualities make these uniquely wonderful and to be able to share that with someone enriches and deepens nuanced love that moves through the ages of human life. Thank you for sharing this wonderful poem.
Your comment rings so true my friend - thanking you masses for your welcome visit.
'we
of midyears
met
new sensations
and loved
stirring up bated passion
by gentle yield.
Time's passing
has made satin
from drab
long-worn creased cotton
and now gone
that ready fever of fullest
acceptance
will, be never forgotten'..
