When We Were Hot

Neville

When We Were Hot

 

Even though, I know

that nothing

lasts for ever and

one day I shall

have to let you go ..

For now,

and maybe for

a moment longer ..

I just want

the whole damn

world to know

you were, once mine ..

And my word,

how we did then shine ..

Both hot

and furnace bright ..

          The hotness takes on a variant characteristic at other life stages. But those ones in the memory bank they are the golden recollections.

            "Hot and furnace bright", what could be more wonderful. To have such memories kept within the mind and heart, is to have a place where one does not grow old, and love is forever young. Beautiful my dear friend.

                'And my word,
                how we did then shine ..
                Both hot
                and furnace bright ..'
                (tattooing those youthful sunshine skies
                with the trails of our realised dreams
                oh how we did fly, high
                scorching our wings of love, for a lifetime)
                absolutely loved your poem Hyung
                thank you!
