Unexpected Kiss
Lorraine Cole 1960 (New York)
MMM Unexpected Kisses
It was warm the wind was blowing,
you come to me, leaned in to talk to me.
You looked at me and I you,
we were both nervous.
I wanted you then as I do now.
Our eyes met, mine danced all over you,
trying to take all of you in, burn you into my mind
for all time, it's so short.
Life, how can this be?
You leaned in and kissed me,
MMM so soft, so sweet, so warm.
Unexpected Kisses, over whelming
feelings, fate or destiny!
In the cards?
Whatever it is, it is there, for us.
