Under a shimmering blanket of stars
We lie and wait as time goes by
Away from the noise, the bustle, the cars
This singular simplicity making us high
I know I am not yet in love
Love is something forged by time
For now it is enough to know that you are mine
Our thoughts of us still pure as a dove
My soul is soaring like a kite
Carried away by the sweet air of tonight
The words unsaid and bond formed someday just might
Create a love so very right
Verse Not Prose 
pure and innocent first love under the stars on a blanket the noise and and world a distant blur. xx
It’s a wonderful feeling “Just a picture perfect day that lasts a whole life time and it never ends ’cause all we have to do is hit rewind” That’s from the song Young Forever by Jay-Z and Mr. Hudson.

A beautiful romantic writing , nostalgic dreamings
Enjoyed that scenario you have painted

Your writing is so mature and wise. This is beautifully formed and worded. A wonderful tribute to what love is really about. A sense of the sacred even as it manifests in the physical…
‘I know I am not yet in love
Love is something forged by time
For now it is enough to know that you are mine
Our thoughts of us still pure as a dove’
Thank you! I think I am more mature than most people my age, so my views on love are usually a little more cautious than my contemporaries, which has its benefits and drawbacks.

I was much the same when I was your age…and you are right that it has its benefits and drawbacks. But in the long term I believe I used my time…much of it learning and writing and exploring my purpose…much better than alot of my peers then.
I still ‘dance to my own drummer’ and although it is easier, still not without its difficult moments. But writing is the safety net…and even more, it is a blessing.
And sharing, I think, makes it even more so.
Its soooo sweet and cute!!!!!!!!!! I love it! ❤
Thank you! I tried to write about budding love in a new way.

This is a beautifully written poem! You capture those precious early moments of Loves Blossoming perfectly. It seems to me you must be falling in love now; this instant
To have captured the tenderness so well it must be fresh. You are gifted. Thank you for sharing your work.
Peace, Jen
Thank you, and I’m falling quite hard….I hope my parachute is working:)
