Helen Hasn’t Forgotten How to Kiss    2/8/15

Helen may have forgotten everything she knows

But she still knows how to kiss… 

And she gives out her kisses liberally, 

Free for the asking.

Sometimes they come of their own accord.

If the moment is right 

And your face is in the right place 

You never know when you might get a surprise.

But it is not so surprising when one considers

How basic the kiss is …

As the earliest exchange beyond the breast

The kiss is the first transaction between equals.

And Helen is equally happy giving or receiving… 

It makes no difference to her.

A kiss is a kiss and they are free for the asking
