First Love

Late evening sun glows syrupy gold
Speeding shadows of shivering green
Senses heighten as excitement unfolds
I’m flying high on sweet summer morphine
You fire my blood like a shot of good whisky
Warmth pulses, spreads through my veins
Every nerve sparks alive when you’re with me
Smiles string my face like a child’s daisy chain
Machine and muscle respond in one motion
Hungrily hugging the curve of the road
Free as wind whipping over the ocean
Change down gear, music on, chill out mode
I’m in love with my brand new obsession
My first car, sleek chrome and red passion
