First Love #10 Adele
By Phil
29 January 2007
High school, early eighties.

First Love #10 Adele


She played guitar two hours a day
And had the hardest finger tip pads.
She’d push her boyish hair
Behind one ear and frown.
From opposite ends of town
I was never quite smooth enough
For this sophisticate.

Rather different girls each of them
Not quite the Fabulous Phlem....

I enjoyed reading this Phil. But it doesn't have that spark of riotous potential of ' Phil and His Fabulous Phlem '.  
 
The Trotters will need you soon. Light up at the match when they are 0-5 down to Aresnal. A good gozzing showert of the magic stuff and every player in a white shirt will be netting. Like they say on the terraces of the Reebock when Bolton is well behind..... ' By gum, Phil! Thas'll need t' give 'em a gobful o' gozz ' Phil always obliges with a downpour of his Fabulous Phlem. After a sprinkling of that men become Gods...... 
 
Slan!

Another good snapshot here Phil.  
 
I like the sly rhyme, thrown in there, just to mix things up a bit.  
 
Cheers,

you should reprint these in a collected work once you get to the end - errr - how many are there going to be! and how many of these ladies will read on here and chase you down the road with a heavy frying pan? 
 
I think the tease of these (oops) is the numbering, and seeing the development of your attitude to "first love", rather than reading each individual poem.  
 
But I'm hooked, Phil; here's to #11.

I like this one best. 
 
The girl, not the poem.

I've been catching up with these poems, Phil, and I think they're brilliant. They describe the girls' personalities to a T - short but very sweet! :)
