Analysis of Little Pecks

Mark A Klein 1965 (Cairo)



That little kiss in the morning
It may be just a peck
Another in the evening
Gives me goosebumps on my neck

It may be just that simple
That you love me everyday
Cause a peck is worth a million
Signs of love you send my way

I’d be lost without those little
Pecks of love to make my day
Lost without this showing
Not knowing if I’m to go or stay

When my heart refrains from beating
and the earthly pecks reside
I’ll be in a constant state of yearning
For my pecks on the other side
