Truths, Mingled with Interpolations of Me

Fifteen years ago, I met her in the forest of the Alps.
It might have been the other way around.
She came to see a new boy in town.
A long-haired tomboy that stood six-foot on the ground.

Let's call her cr_zyh0b0 and forestry was the hobby she loved.
Mingle, we did. Soon, the alias of enforcer48 came about.
She was my first friend in the area no doubt.
She offered to show me around and take me out.

She was definitely the more athletic of us two,
Sporting martial skills and archery alike.
The only common things felt like riding bikes,
And sometimes fishing by the river for pikes.

She often got in fights with other teens.
It makes you wonder how she managed to have friends at all.
She never shied away from a brawl.
I guess that was the benefit of not being small.

Sometimes, we enjoy a chat while having tea.
We talked about our lives and dreams.
Neither of us knew what we wanted it seemed.
Even today, that remains to be the theme.

Alas, it was time for me to go.
The time was around the fall.
Lederhosen she wore I recall.
Her hair, in twin tails, she stood tall.

I never knew what happened to her since.
Many years have passed.
Her name, lost in the past.
Perhaps, it is time I asked.

I still hold one memento.
A hatchet that she had.
Looking at it made me sad.
Well, maybe just a tad.

This was the story of when I was a lad.

(Based on a true story...sorta.)

Not bad...
Not bad at all.

I like your flair with words
You should do it more often

I don't do this often.

Just figured I should try something different.

Hehe. Nice. Didnt know you were a poet. :)

I dabble in it from time to time.

A prequel to leokitty series. A story worthy of tribute to bananas

Wouldn't call it a prequel as it doesn't involve the person you mentioned.

Prequels don't need to involve the recent characters in a story. One character mingling with people they happen to know in the past is enough for it to be a prequel.

Fair enough.

I love the story no matter what,
Doesn't matter it is a fool or not.

The story contains some truths. Experiences that I had in my youth.

Truth and true,
that I believe you.

@cr_zyh0b0 - Sorry! This page doesn't exist.

Ah, too bad, I was hoping for another layer there!

Haha no layer.

At least, she is not here.

I like this. The rhyme scheme is diverting and it doesn't seem to pin you down.

Write more, get better! I want to see more @enforcer48 poetry.

On the other hand...
Do what you want, don't listen to me!

There may be more from time to time.
