LAST FIRST KISS

LAST FIRST KISS

******

How well I remember my last first kiss,
it happened on just such a night as this!
His hair was golden, his eyes were blue,
I knew at last my dream had come true.

He was so gentle and so very kind
that he almost made me lose my mind;
I'd have thrown myself down at his feet,
wanting to taste a first kiss so sweet.

But alas, and alas, alack....His smile,
as he puckered up with toothless guile,
was more than an aged heart could bear,
and after that first kiss, I left him there!

That was indeed, my last first kiss,
now I sit alone on a night like this;
intrigue and infatuation I feel no more,
I turn out the lights and lock the door.

I say my prayers as old folks still do,
Lord only knows what I've gone through.
I'd rather remember my FIRST first kiss,
especially on a summer night like this.
