THE FIFTH KISS

He almost stole the first kiss
So overcome was he
The second was given freely
So overcome was she
The third was given legally
A marriage blessed for two
Then three
The fourth was givenĀ 
To someone else
And run away with herĀ 
Did he
The fifth was givenĀ 
Mother to child
The truest kiss
That does precide
Over all.
Marion Price (2019)

When it's after dinner
And time for sleep

You're the police.

You want to go out...

in the not too far off distance
