Then, Now, and Forever

Snacking on popcorn and Starburst

While watching a movie

Wondering when you'll get your first 

One perfect kiss

 

Loving word pass

Talking in his car

Then, you get, at last

One perfect kiss

 

Tears in your eyes, nodding yes

He slips a ring on your finger

Then he gives you, what we can all guess

One perfect kiss

 

Saying the words "I do"

Eyes locked onto each other

You give each other a true

One perfect kiss

 

A baby's soft coo

In the hospital room

Your husband gives each of you

One perfect kiss

 

On a deathbed, almost cast

From your wonderful life

He leans down and gives you a last

One perfect kiss

This is a poem I was forced to write for English class. The English teacher really likes my poems. I don't really like writing poems, otherwise.
