Challenge
It is easy to write about pain but we have to create a happy world. Let us write about happiness - not out of success or love or marriage. Write about the just like that kind of happiness. And make the world a happy place. It could be a poetry, a ballad or prose. Just pen down a smile today! And don't forget to tag me..
A Good Kiss
A good kiss is a lot like
a bad car crash.
Springtime and gasoline
perfume –
veined romance,
music in breaking glass.
And in the instant of collision
everything is free-floating,
jumbled.
Pine needles, dried leaves and
an ancient peanut
float by you
as they enjoy
weightlessness.
Boys will lose one
dirty athletic sock on
dirtier blacktop and never
know it.
think about how hard it is
to pull those cars apart,
tangled together as they are.
It can’t be done
Without screeching
metal and the help of
municipal forces.
If you are lucky
both of you will walk away,
shaking but alive.
If you are blessed
the pain of the event
will be dwarfed by the contrast
of colors and shadow
and the taste of ripe strawberries.
