That First Kiss

how many kisses ago was it?

that first touch of the lips,

beginning as light as a feather

that grew into a life shared

...Remembering it today with candles and feathers...

He was a friend of a friend

and a group of us did many things together.

We saw each other often, as a part of a small church

 filled with many our age.

Inner-tubing down snow packed hills in the winter,

and picnics at the park in the summer.

before too long I began to think of him as more than a friend.

Friendship seemed a wide chasm too huge to cross

do you remember yours?

Happy Valentines Day!
