Teen Choices

For Stormy's contest week starting 4/4

In this season of romance and love
I sit and look at the buds
on the trees
The bloosoms forming
on the rose bushes.

I find myself pretending
I am a teen again,
to feel the classic
boyfriend/girlfriend relation
where I could start over.

I would do it
so differently.
The issue of not
getting caught
in the hell created
is non-existent.

Listening to others
who knew better,
a priority;
above and beyond
my feelings
at the time.
