When I was 14 during the summer before entering high school for the first time, I discovered a beautiful, young brunette of comparable age who resided down the street from me in the backwood, in-the-middle-of-nowhere, unincorporated town that i lived while growing up. She did not live there. She, along with her meek younger sister and incorrigible, even-younger brother, was visiting her Aunt for a couple weeks that summer. Her hair fluttered in the light, Wisconsin town breeze as a ladybug surfing the air on a feather. Her smile shimmered brighter than the sparkle on the nearby Wisconsin River at noon on a hot, summer's day. She was a little shy at first when my parents and her Aunt introduced us for what should've been an innocent play date. However, while her Aunt was away and her mischievous, younger brother was attempting to access his Aunt's liquor cabinet, her sister watched as this young, brunette beauty and I grew comfortable with each other's bodies while listening to Van Halen's "1984". We touched, caressed, groped and touched some more, easing our bodies into each other on the front porch of her Aunt's underneath the warm glow of mother nature's condoning sunshine. I remember helping her reach the apex of womanhood just as David Lee Roth sang "reach down [CENSORED] and ease the seat back". That was a magical moment no pixies or rainbow-colored unicorns can ever touch, the moment when i went from being a naive, wide-eyed boy to a less-naive, wide-eyed man-boy. Her beauty is everlasting. Coincidentally, her name was Amy too. Amy, I will remember you.
