Martie, this is indeed the next step for many young lovers. The pulse quickens, and the whole body becomes highly sensitive. A romance poem, without mistake and love is in the air without a doubt. In five lines well done!

Second base; the place that any young buck wants to get to. This piece effectively shows the physical steps he goes through to get there. Thanks for sharing.

"Second Base"
Is a 5 Line Poetry Contest Entry.
Rich in Theme and Imagery.
...
It read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
...
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly.
Thanks and good luck with this.

Ah yes Martie;
I always begins with Chemistry and ends in Biology (and, invited or not, baby makes three).
Very well constructed in the rather tight and specific format of the contest, in which I wish you well.
As you have elected not to punctuate the piece, perhaps consider presenting it all in lower-case and make it more minimalist - just a thought.
I wish you well with your writing.
cheers

    Thank you for the suggestion; thank you for the lovely review; and thank you for the good wishes! This is all new to me and I am enjoying the "trial". I am a rhyming poet by nature (as all my books would indicate) but I am enjoying this possibly fruitful challenge.

Hello Martie, I hope your day is going well. Thank you for sharing your poem, I think you executed the five line poem well. Just one question, what exactly is second base? I was never quite sure what the bases meant, just what the homerun was, and who doesn't want to hit a homerun? lol Good job and good luck in the contest.

With all those symptoms, it seems like love is in the air. This is a very nice poem and is a good entry for the 5 line poem contest. This is a romantic poem.

What an interesting, descriptive poem. You painted a vivid picture using few words. It's so well-written that it takes the reader back to their younger days. Makes them remember what they felt like when they were with their first crush. Very nicely done.
