A Kiss Heard Around The World Poem by Richard Ford Bunuel Whale Carnegie Edison Simon Hitchcock Welles Christ Antunes Rodriguez Kubrick

One day when our eyes connect,
It would be like an embrace
Heard around the world,
As we seemingly approach
Each other slow... Like a dance

Of courtship... We come closer
With every step, subjectively
It is an excruciating eternity..
But our eyes never waver
And never flutter

As we are transfixed
With each other's brown eyes...
An earth tone where we are alike
In vision... You be woman...
I stay boy until we lock lips

As I have my first kiss...
I feel your heart beat
As we are merely separated
By a short distance...
Our feet advance...

We meet in the middle
Of a friendship circle,
Where we two become
More than friends
As I take your hands in mine...

I lean down closer as you rise
Up on your tippy toes...
Balanced together
By our magnetism...
Our pheromones mix...

And then... We kiss
