The First Kiss I Remember

So Many loves that I recall in a life so brash and bold Giving me my fondest memories to enjoy when I get old Each had their moment and I loved them one and all There is one more kiss, the funniest I recall We called her Marbles and to me she was so much more I'd laugh when she'd come to me as I was playing on the floor I was just a child, so naïve, so innocent, so weak She kissed me on the face and left saliva on my cheek She'd sit in front of my chair, looking up as she begs The first kiss I remember was from a female with four legs

They sure are special kisses, always welcome. I don't have them any more as she died a short time ago. I love the sentiment though.

LOL..so funny, Vince! It would have been a memorable first kiss, for sure.:) It was sweet of you to remember, "Marbles" Sounds like a great pet and friend. Wishing you and yours the best! Stay well and keep up those happy writes! Mikki
