In another time
…another life
We were lovers
Like the ocean
Caressing the sands of its shore
We’d be good like that.
In another time
A deeper, richer time
When people did what they would say
And “I LOVE YOU” meant more than
PHYSICAL INTIMACY
I would have loved you…
In another time
…another place
When word was bond
And honor traced the steps our lives would take
An older time
When men stood in the presence of a lady
And you brought flowers to dinner
Wine…on Sundays
And chocolates on fun days
You know
The way your grandparents did it
When they {courted}
I would have loved you
In that way
When walks by the lake were all you had to do
And a squeeze of the hand said;
I LOVE YOU
Yes…that time.
You know
Skinny dipping
While tripping over modesty
Trying hard to make sure
Her eyes weren’t sipping too much of me
{yet, hoping she did.}
YEAH.
YEAH.
I would have loved you in the evening shadows
When the flowers lost their full bloom
I would have showered you with saucy love
From head to toe
Stirring the heat of you
That’s what I’d do
In AnOtHeR tImE.
