Analysis of Budding Fling.
dougb.72752 1951 (London)
I cannot fix the time
When romance
Became the thing.
Was it Classics 301
Were the Greek tales
Fascinating.
When we shared a
Writing project.
Lots of evening
Coffee
And your room mates
Took the hint
We had spicier things
To do...me and you.
All that term
We were an item
Concert movies
Formal dance.
But your course
Took you to Penn State
And I had no second chance.
