Summer '99 (with Pete_25)
She smelt like Summer '99
Braided hair, petals n' wine
Tango trees, the sun above
Misspent youth, our Summer of love
The days would last, chasing stars
Smiles and laughs, purple hearts
Baize lush fields, puffy clouds
Chirping crickets, sang out loud
Skinny dips, kissing stones
Strawberry lips, this our home
Love and wine, back in time
Back in the Summer of '99
Such sweet memories, being made
Flirts and glances, under shade
Moon bares witness, tender kiss
Softening melody, night of bliss
Dancing close, bodies sway
Infectious dose, hearts convey
Please define, it’s by design

Author's Note
Late night musing. Pete, wrote 3/4 of this write folks. He asked me to help with an ending, as he was having problems finding the right ending. The last two stanza's are my contribution, great idea, Pete. Hope you're happy with this ending. Appreciate you.

The 90s were great. We were young, full of energy and the possibilities were endless.
Great collab you two.

You two... Great collab. Big smile on my face. Into the RL it belongs.
It was seamless if you didn't say anything I would not have figured out who did what. Nice blend of voices
