    Poem Commentary

    This is a funny little poem...my very first (ever). The title did not come until only a few years ago...which, coincidentally, so did the second stanza. I just added it because it seemed like the first part of the poem was unfinished (for some reason). The second part is more humor than love, but I thought it up and decided to include it anyway. PS: the title - First Time Love (French)

    Primera Tiempo Amour

    To you is this time,
      that I may recite this rhyme;
    to you, whom I like best,
      may you enjoy the rest;
    I have these feelings of love in my heart,
      may you bring them out, and give me a new start;

    your name might be Lorraine, or possibly Jean,
      with eyes of royal blue, or hunter green;
    for now my love I will keep hid,
      seventy years gone, still like a kid;
    your hand in mine, bright shining smile,
      sit here with me, for just a little while;
    no speaking, no hugging, nor even a kiss,
      simply your presence...what I miss.

    I always thought this one was way too silly to ever do anything with. I memorized it and would recite it to people, if I ever thought they'd not puke. The latter portion I added, because when I wrote the poem I used to stare at the back of Lorraince Massey's pretty head (at her hair). Every once in a while she' turn around to ask me a question and I'd think the world was going to end. Then, in 1999/2000, a lady named Jean came into my life. Jean and (eyes of) green seemed to work well together, thus the remainder of the poem was born.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.
