a new experience
an opportunity to try something new
so long ago and yet like yesterday
a lot has changed
many things are the same
a level of comfort
a sense of familiarity
a puzzle piece that just fits
a question that does not require an answer
a rainbow amidst a stormy sky
an oasis in the middle of a desert
butterflies were aflutter
nerves were at an all time high
the mind of a dreamer
the heart of a romantic lover
awakened at the prospect
thrilled by the maybe
seas are ever changing
two boats drifted in the night
the water became choppy
perfect storms arose
eventually seas were calm
the sun began to shine
life began to awaken
second time around
just as sweet
maybe sweeter
no longer a new experience
now a familiar ride down memory lane
nostalgic and safe
live life grow change
wine gets better with time
great stories can be written
memories and amazing lives unfold
perfect people exist in utopia
the right people exist in reality
first means once, a one time opportunity
no repeats
no do overs
a phoenix rises out of the ashes
out of the dust to reveal
a magnificent bird
out of the old
sometimes a new beginning is found
you were my first......................
