Long hazy days of endless fun <br />Locked arm in arm on strolling trips <br />Ne’re looking back nor forward either <br />Ho how I miss those puckered lips <br /> <br />The fun we had just hanging around <br />No one bothered about time or reason <br />With friends we share our childhood play <br />Out having fun no matter the season <br /> <br />When I look back with glazed expression <br />To see the wondrous life we had <br />It’s then I realise it had its shortfalls <br />Where love was lost, days ended sad <br /> <br />But above it all when we were young <br />Through memories haze, the hops and skips <br />The beauty of my childhood sweetheart <br />Lost in sweet dreams of those puckered lips <br /> <br />Copyright Brian Peza Perrins 2009<br /><br />Brian 'Peza' Perrins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/puckered-lips/
