Reminisce
I often sit and reminisce
Of you and I, that summer when
With high school over, teenage bliss
And romance made us more than friends
My graduation party, lame!
I often sit and reminisce
When we drove down to Spooner’s Lane
The end of May: We’d only kissed
By August, we had reached Third Base
I swiped Pop’s gin, we drank our fill
I often sit and reminisce
Of making love on Signal Hill
We left for college, parting ways
And so, we ended summer’s tryst
Now all alone and middle-aged
I often sit and reminisce
Of you and I, that summer when
With high school over, teenage bliss
And romance made us more than friends
My graduation party, lame!

When we drove down to Spooner’s Lane
The end of May: We’d only kissed
By August, we had reached Third Base
I swiped Pop’s gin, we drank our fill
I often sit and reminisce
Of making love on Signal Hill
We left for college, parting ways
And so, we ended summer’s tryst
Now all alone and middle-aged
I often sit and reminisce

I like this, Reggie - scans, rhymes and flows beautifully through the quatern phases - and strikes such a nice tone for the memory.

I really enjoyed this, especially the sweet nostalgia and rhythm within!

Ah, reminded me of a girl called Molly, what a naughty little thing she was., Oh, how I, too, reminisce .

An altogether beautiful conception, ReggiePoet!
And the quatern is the perfect vehicle for giving pointed emphasis to that essential line that carries your persuasion. Your rhymes and half rhymes make a lovely cocktail of the cohesive soundscape.
Structurally sound and oratorically informative.
