Fantasies

My fantasies when young were vivid, descriptive and rudely fun.
My fantasies when young took me to exotic locales, where everyone had a really tight bun.
My fantasies when young made my everyday grind seem more exciting and fantastically colored.
My fantasies when young as I look back on them now, cause my heart to run and my face to flush.

My fantasies mid-life caused me no strife, they seemed pretty normal for a housewife.
My fantasies mid-life consisted of hard work, the house with attached garage and kids.
My fantasies mid-life had a staid respectability, most fitting for my grand scheme for me.
My fantasies mid-life as I look back on them now, cause no angst, no embarrassing flushes, how boring.

My fantasies in my now-life cause ripples of anticipation, waves of passion, not least of which were mini-tropical vacations.
My fantasies in my now-life give me the freedom to explore, to seek out the new, to intensely feel with every fiber of my being.
My fantasies in my now-life tease and taunt me quite deliciously; I taste fully and savor each bite, I hunger for more.
My fantasies in my now-life are pleasurable for me; i wonder will my fantasies age gracefully along with me or will they fade into obscurity?

Hi, amahlala,
May fantasies always remain vivid, descriptive and...fun as they tease and taunt...quite deliciously. Thank you for sharing.

GNJ & FAL said well, you are mid now, I'd add the my take that stanza 3 is an incorporation of 1 & 2. tempered enthusiasm! No obscurity there!
