"That first kiss..."
You've captured the magic, Lori.

I want to share something with you about That First Kiss. Please visit my den and click on the poems "A Lovely Rose" and "The Kiss."

I, too, was 14. It was 1947. The girl was Jodi.

I enjoyed Barbara Terry's comments below.

See how powerful your poetry is, Lori? You've got us circling the calendar for "second helpings" by memory.

Great poem.
Richard

I do remember my firast kiss Lori, but my mother woul have killed if she had known it was boy I kissed. But even in the institution, there were ways of going on dates, without seeming so obvious. Then while no one was looking, we would kiss, and OMG the passion we felt in our puppy love, when we were 14. May the Lord be with you, and at your side always. With much love, peace, & (((HUGS))), your very dear friend in Wisconsin, and sister in Christ our Lord,

This is so lovely, Lori. I only got kissed on the cheek when we played spin the bottle. It brought back fun memories of the innocence of youth.

My first kiss I was playing cricket at school, and Bernette Hooks would not leave me alone, she got her friends to pin me down, as my mates laughed, I'd been telling her I did not fancy her all term.

Least I got back to the game. Unless kiss chase when about seven.

I was always in love with Caroline O'Drisscoll, but was to frightened to ask such a perfect being out, pretending I didn't like her, cos it made my legs weak stomache churn, blush, and heart race.

Oh faint heart never wins fair mae..
