First Love
By John Clare

I ne'er was struck before that hour
With love so sudden and so sweet.
Her face it bloomed like a sweet flower
And stole my heart away complete.

My face turned pale, a deadly pale.
My legs refused to walk away,
And when she looked what could I ail
My life and all seemed turned to clay.

And then my blood rushed to my face
And took my eyesight quite away.
The trees and bushes round the place
Seemed midnight at noonday.

I could not see a single thing,
Words from my eyes did start.
They spoke as chords do from the string,
And blood burnt round my heart.

Are flowers the winter's choice
Is love's bed always snow
She seemed to hear my silent voice
Not love appeals to know.

I never saw so sweet a face
As that I stood before.
My heart has left its dwelling place
And can return no more.

First Love
By Rick Doran

Drifting ... gently,
within the winds of time.
Having known her loves sweet caresses,
they are forever mine.

Her hands,
her lips,
did love inspire,
her every grace my heart did fire.

As her eyes begin to sparkle,
my emotions start to glow,
as if to suddenly realize,
a self I didn’t know.

There’s many kinds of love,
this we both agree,
But just the vibrancy of her heart, .....
Adds new mystery
