First Kiss

The memory of a first kiss...

Two young hearts

walked to the same beat

with interlaced fingers

in cool fall heat

We counted the pieces

as the sky fell down

you asked me to be yours

sweet breath on my crown

"Of course" was my answer

we are true loves

as stars dotted the ceiling

to the song of turtle doves

A back alley we crept

your skateboard in hand

which became the seat

of our passion's first stand

I smile to myself now

as we still live in bliss

when I think those years back

to our very first kiss

A poem I thought of the other day, when I was thinking about mine and my Husband's first kiss ^_^

My real first kiss was when I was about seven years old. I had a crush on a girl in my class, and she knew it. After a few months, I went up to her (remind you, I was a kid and didn't really know what I was doing it for), and planted a kiss on her. At first, I thought she was gonna slap me or punch me so hard that I would end up at the nurse's office. But instead, she actually kissed me back. And we remained good friends until we reach high school. But later, I moved and never saw her again. But that was my real and most memorable kiss I had. Even to this day, I still reflect on where she may be, and wondering if she is now married and has a family of her own.

First off...AWWWWWWWW! Secondly, thank you for sharing such a sweet story! You were definitely braver than most seven year olds. There are some people like that in our lives. They, for some reason, have an impact on us, and we never forget them.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
I've gone through a million read requests and the poetry has had no rhythm or rhyme. Some of them didn't even make sense.
Yours rhymes perfectly. It has a very organized rhythm. If you made it into a song, it would be easy because it has RHYTHM.
And I love the happy feeling to it as opposed to a lot of depressing poetry going around.
So, I thank you for a good read.
(If you couldn't tell, I absolutely love this poem.)

Thank you very much ^_^ I'm glad you liked it! I'm much better at writing poems that rhyme I think. They just flow better to me. Free verse is not my forte' xD again thank you so much!

[Geon Quuin]

This is, technically, a free verse.

[Serenity Faith]

It is??? O.o lol...that must mean it's "not poetry" then. XD

[Geon Quuin]

Free verse does not necessarily mean it's not poetry. It just mean that it doesn't follow a certain structure.

Oh I know...I was just quoting a good friend of ours lol

First kisses always leave a lasting impression. I can still remember my first kiss ever in life and I can tell you all my first kisses with those whom have come after. A kiss is more personal than many other sexual acts and it opens us up to the person we are in love with. This is a great story about your first kiss which has lasted until years later. Great painting of life's adventure and the emotions that come with it.

this is covered in innocents and filled with all the anticipation and mystery of that first kiss.

I love this, it has a very tender and juvenile feel to it, which makes it all the sweeter! Perfect.
