We Learned of Love

How did we learn of love?
	In eyes of blue fondly gazing
	And our laughter softly rising—
	We learned of love one anxious time
	When my voice, antsy, did invite
	A budding lovely on a date.

How did we learn of love?
	Through holding hands one winter’s night,
	By thriving on each other’s sight—
	Of love we learned by accident
	Through throbbing hearts, unuttered words,
	And lips that melded by surprise.

How did we learn of love?
	By soft breasts pressed against my chest
	While kissing long and tenderly—
	Oh! that innocence in her breath
	And color risen to her cheeks:
	Thus, did we learn of our deep love.
