The Story Within A Kiss Poem by Colleen Wright

Comfort from a mother's sweet kiss
is soothing, safety and close security.
Protection comes from a proud dad
as he pecks a forehead of girl or lad.

Siblings and relatives swiftly do pass
the rare meaningful peck so very fast.
From the passing kiss to a huge hug
comes as good friends hearts do tug.

From the new suitor – ah, a different
kiss which passes, or stays permanent.
That kiss will show good, or remiss,
if they are not good - or are they bliss?

His feelings of what he does need,
of that, each one should take heed.
Is it with much thought and feeling,
or is it just his easy selfish spieling?

However, if gentle, and with time
his lips with yours will be sublime,
and his love will display a yearning
for you, and need of love's learning.
