Lemon Lined Streets

Lemon Lined Streets

 

I just thought you might

   like to know,

I still find riding through

all these

 

  narrow cobbled streets,

each one lined

both sides, with lemon

trees and at speed

on a borrowed red bicycle

as exhilarating

today as ever I did, when

we were both

    still naïve and young lovers ..

Ah living and feeling young is a freedom all in itself. Doing things without caring what others may think and allowing ourselves pure childish joy is exhilarating. I love that you used a color for the bicycle and chose red. It makes it stand out in the mind!!

I ran around the bookstore like a big kid yesterday and was even carrying around squish mallows and wearing a Harry Potter sorting hat lol it was indeed a joyful day.

Seeing scenes of the past can rehash that past in our minds, which isn't always a pleasant experience. Here, however, it seems to have been just that. Cherish it.

[Neville]

indubitably cherished .. and thanks for the nod.

[Thomas W Case]

dearest Neville.. Time gives us a Chance to linger along the Mountain Paths where Romance smiled and grew among the Prim Rose ….
softly, Pat

Love the idea of oldies acting like kids:) Never let that inner child stay hidden. Borrowed red bicycles ridden at speed down narrow cobbled streets. That could be asking for trouble. Red for danger. I appreciated the lemon trees. They have much symbolism and spirituality for me. Lemon for innocence, cleansing etc. So much packed into a short poem. Good mane Neville.

Seriously this is a gentle breeze of a poem.

[Neville]
