I'm not a poetic person but...........

I found this little poem in my daily paper and it rather stuck a chord with me so I thought I would share it with you........

The Kiss

.

"What other men have dared, I dare,"

He said. "I'm daring too:

And tho' they told me to beware,

One kiss I'll take from you."

.

"Did I say one? Forgive me dear;

That was a grave mistake,

For when I've taken one, I fear,

One hundred more I'll take."

.

"Tis sweet one kiss from you to win,

But stop there? Oh no!

One kiss is only the begin;

There is no end you know."

.

The maiden arose from where she sat

And gently raised her head:

"No man has ever talked like that-

You may begin," she said.
