Her First Impression
It was a brief kiss,
less would have sufficed,
more would have been appreciated.
The sparks it sent through me
lasted until I reached my car.
The sweet taste of her lips
carried me out of the state.
The memory of her mouth on mine
took me long into the dawn.
The time we spent together
brought me safely home.
And the vision of her face
travels with me still.
