Jessie Hopkins - First Kiss

Dashing through the sand <br />as we hold the other’s hand. <br />Smiling as we run. <br />Having lots of fun. <br /> <br />We run into the water. <br />Though it is cold, we don’t falter. <br />Laughing as we play. <br />Splashing water each other’s way. <br /> <br />He chases me round and round <br />until he grabs and pulls me to the ground. <br />As we roll, the ground smothers my laugh <br />and gives me a sandy bath. <br /> <br />I grow quiet as he stares down at me, <br />for there is something strange in eyes like the sea. <br />He lowers his lips to mine <br />and with his touch, stops time. <br /> <br />At first, he is slow and curious, <br />enough to make me crazy and furious. <br />Then he deepens it <br />and my heartbeat picks up a bit. <br /> <br />My hands get lost in his hair. <br />Black as shadows fleeing from the sun’s glare. <br />His hands grip my arms <br />but not enough to bring me harm. <br /> <br />The kiss is truly wonderful <br />and I believe it’s quite magical. <br />It’s about time we got around to this. <br />I’ve been waiting for our first kiss.<br /><br />Jessie Hopkins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/first-kiss-83/
