The Kiss

It's OK

Actually, it's Weird.
It's Wild.
It's Silly. & Ridiculous.
It's Fantastic, Inspiring, Awespiring, Ineveitable, Avoidable & Totally Unavoidable.
It is a Kiss...
It is the Thought of a Kiss...
It is a love letter never meant to be sent.
It's a daydr
eam, a hope, a desire... a memory.
It is Perfume behind the knees & Confusion over Absolutely Nothing.

It's the belief in Glass Slippers & always keeping your eyes open in hopes of finding those slippers.
It's the beleif that if you do find them, that your 8M foot will comfortably slide right into those 5 1/2 narrows.

It's the belief in chasing dreams & the understanding that sometimes you have to run, stumble, trip & even fall, to catch a glimpse of what-could-be.

It's the knowledge that sometimes life requires a swift kick in the ass. It's the awareness that the kick may self-inflicted, as our own feet smack our backside when we get up and charge full-throttle forward once again.

It's the belief that life would be a wee bit boring if one didn't incorporate tidbits of fantasies into our daily realities.

IT IS A KISS.
And, I still get the butterflies.

Ummm...I couldn't get font to go small enough to add this to post, so...I will comment on myself....

Nana always told me to kiss lots of boys, find one that kisses good & kiss him again. Instead I would just daydream about 'The Kiss and I'd kiss no-one...holding onto my dreams & chasing 'The Kiss' that I dreampt of. This little bit was written many, many moons ago & I thought I'd throw it out here, prompted by my sisters' post on the Hippie Parade, to remind myself & maybe someone else of the seemingly magical feelings of love & lust.

I've never had a day without fantasy.

There is a fine line between fantasy & reality. Some call that line insanity.

" find one that kisses good & kiss him again" Ahhhhh, precious Nana, always knowing when to say when......

You know what Skinny? I LOVE YOU!

Fantasy is what makes the feeling so magical.And that gets lost sometimes when reality enters the picture, if only we would take time to look back and feel the magic again.Reminds me of the quote:
“It's weird. I mean, he's a dream, a fantasy, and, if he becomes real, it's like he's not mine anymore.”

Lovely, beautiful. :)

I found one!
And I get to kiss the fella any time I like.

Very cool.

JustRun said...

There's no excitement quite like it, is there?

All good things start with a dream. Without dreams there would be nothing new. Wighout hope there is nothing and it all hinges on dreams...

A kiss from someone who loves you is maybe the most magical and greatest things in life. I need more kisses

Anne said...

You know, kisses that are blown are unpredictable. They almost always hit you, but if you move at the last moment it may not land right. It might hit your cheek, or the tip of your nose, your left arm, or smack you on the back of the head! I'm sending you one, skinny... *smooch!* ...look out! :D

Me said...

I did some kissing last night. I can still taste the lime from the Tequila. Oy, hangover city!

I'm always offering people at work a hug. I'm suprised people are so reclusive, but they smile and sometimes thats just enough.

Kisses + butterflys = win.

skinnylittleblonde said...

(((Orhan))) I work with a bunch of other women & we hug all the time.

I agree...kisses + butterflies = win!
Some people NEVER experience that, so those of us that do should really appreciate it...it may be fleeting.

BTW, I knew that if anyone picked up on my somewhat secret message, it would be you :) P&L Orhan... you rock.

sammyray said...
