You Must Have Looked Good

You must have looked so good when you were young!

You still have shapely legs,
high cheekbones,
sparkling eyes,
a mischievous smile,
a neat figure,
slim neck,
strong shoulders...

You must have looked so good, but I can't remember you
as your were, unless, too occasionally,
I take down a photo album from its dusty shelf,
and there you are in your young glory,
making me feel that other men
must have envied me then
and perhaps they do now!

All I can say after reading this post is that his is a very innocent and honest acknowledgement of the elements of love which made the chemistry work for you... I appreciate your humility in doing so without male chauvinism... i liked it for sure...
