THE FIRST TIME EVER ..................... ?
THE FIRST TIME EVER ~ I saw your FACE
I saw the SUN shine in your eyes
And to You the MOON & STARS I gave
To banish all our Dark & Gloomy Skies !
THE FIRST TIME EVER, I kissed your LIPS
The EARTH it moved at your command
My Heart was like a captive Bird
And I was helpless in your Hand!
THE FIRST TIME EVER ~ I touched your SKIN
A Thrill went through soul and mine
Something we felt ~ without ~ within
And I was Yours and You were MINE !
THE FIRST TIME EVER, We Lay and Loved
Our Bodies they were intertwined
We became as ONE, MY LOVE
And shall be 'til the END OF TIME
Comments are very welcome : Love ANGELA & BRIAN XXXX

Ohhh swoon! I shall spend all day recovering now! Knew it would be too much for me. heehee. Oh. get your coat and get out more Orchi!
Poor old Orchi. What can be done for him?
I didn't know Elvis was so swoony in singing, or so croony (crooning)?!
THANKS STEVE ~ I knew this one would hit you between the EYES ! It is a Perfect Folk Love Song ~ and for me ELVIS ~ KING of SWOON ~ is the perfect Man to sing it. A Perfect collaboration across 11,500 miles for ANGELA & I Thanks for your comments ~ Its 8am here (Essex) and 7pm for Angela in NZ ~ Love BRIAN & ANGELA XXXX
Beautiful loving interpretation from you both.
Elvis and Johnny Cash were at Sun records together and recorded an album with Carl Perkins and a newcomer called Jerry Lee Lewis, it was called The Million Dollar Quartet.
THANK ANDY ~ Pleased you enjoyed the POEM Collaboration does help to bridge the DISTANCE & TIME ! I have visited SUN RECORDS and stood on the SPOT you can still feel the vibes ! As you know "The First Time ......." is a classic FOLK SONG recorded by Peter Paul & Mary etc ~ However I feel that Elvis (master of interpretation) gave it the respect it deserves. I wanted a MALE SINGER the best Female version is by CELINE DION ! LOVE BRIAN & ANGELA XXXX
Lovely tender write - congrats to both of you.
THANKS MIKE ~ I LOVE THIS SONG and our POEM is just a paraphrase (I have acknowledged EWAN !) I feel ELVIS gives it the tenderness it deserves ~ OK At 8am for me (UK) it was 7pm for ANGELA (NZ) a good time for collaboration ~ we are winding down @ College. Pleased you enjoyed the empathy Angela & I share ~ YOURS BRIAN & ANGELA XXXX
I'm swooning too! Elvis is in the poetic house! So sweet Brian. You brought the house down this am. Loved it.
Of course Angelia did too. Didn't mean to leave her out. Congrats!
THANKS HEART ~ I LOVE COLLABORATION POEMS ~ this is my first with ANGELA ! It was a good time to collaborate and post 8am for ME (UK) and 7pm for ANGELA (NZ) We wrote the "new verse" on the "Touch of Skin & Skin" between us ~ OK. We operate as one ! Love BRIAN & ANGELA XXXX For me ELVIS will always be "The KING" I have visited GRACELANDS ~ awesome experience ~ BRIAN
A duo combo like this deserves all our praise for highlighting the love which lasts "til the end of time" - hearty congrats to you Brian and Angela for this tenderest of reads.
Thanks FAY ~ We have adopted it as our Signature Tune and will get someone or the Choir to sing it at our Wedding ~ I like Elvis' and Celine Dions' versions. Pleased you enjoyed our "Collaboration Poem" We are confident our love will last and separation is making "Our Hearts grow Fonder" Love ~ Brian & Angela XXXX
Miei Cari Amici Brian ed Angela,
Una bella poesia e canzone di ELVIS!
A beautiful collaboration!
Choosing ELVIS for your collaborative piece is a perfect choice! Two and a half years ago I was in Las Vegas where I saw a performance about The Million Dollar Quartet. It was phenomenal!
Abbracci e Baci...
~Laura~
