Ts-tsk. What naughty thoughts crossed your collective heads. Stll, the cops must have enjoyed the debut of you all, I contend, leaving you walk away with a warning.

    Hi Tom, the glorious summers of youth, lol! One of
    the neighborhood guys must
    of seen us girls walking up
    to the pool club that late
    hour. He was hiding behind
    raspberry bushes, lol! I lost
    one of my friends that
    skinny dipped with us a few
    years later to a traffic accident. She was a pre med
    student, a tragic loss. Many
    blessings to you, thank you
    for stopping by my page.

Your poem DID make me chuckle as I imagined some drunk guy sitting due in a lifeguard chair late at night while the cops laughed as they cuffed him. One wonders if he was fined or put in jail overnight.

    Those glorious days of the
    summers of my youth, lol!
    We were quite an adventurous clique. Sadly,
    one of these friends was
    killed in a traffic accident a
    few years later on. She was
    a pre med student, such a
    tragic waste. Thank you
    so much for visiting my
    page and for the 5 stars.
    Blessings to you.

Nice recollection of a long ago incident, which I'm sure you and your friends recall with humor. However, I had to read your explanation below before I understood why the scene was humorous, especially teenagers, I assume being drunk. Also, was the use of US instead of WE for effect? The usage bothered me.

    Hello Harry, I think I recall
    those crazy summer nights
    of long ago more fondly
    lately because after we
    graduated high school, one
    of the girls in my clique
    was killed in a traffic accident. She was a pre med
    student, such a tragic shame.
    I'm 65 now, and sometimes
    long for my lost youth. I've
    always been a nostalgic
    person. The one good thing
    about the drinking was we
    didn't drink and drive. But I
    do regret getting drunk in
    the past. Thank you for
    taking the time to read
    and review this poem.
