It's the peppermint twist <br />and those were the days <br />it was dark when we kissed <br />in the Black Forest Haze. <br /> <br />Could you ever forget <br />how your dad greeted us <br />as he sat on the stairs, <br />I went home on the bus? <br /> <br />Oh those childish times, <br />we obeyed all the rules <br />as I write down these rhymes <br />I can tell we were fools. <br /> <br />When I next travel south <br />to the Forest's green fringe <br />could I borrow your mouth, <br />can we go on a binge? <br /> <br />Just to make up for those <br />days of innocent touch <br />I will bring you a rose <br />reminiscence as such.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/twist-in-the-black-forest/
