A look back into the days of old and how things use to be done. Kissing did mean more back then. It was more coveted and not given out as freely.

I had to smile at how you start out the song as Time Goes By and playing the kissing game and the leads up with a ring on a finger then Early marriage was the fashion.

Some of us, however, left our hometowns for jobs, never to return - except for visits, and we married a little later. Fond memories, though. I'm glad you smiled and I appreciate your comments.

There is so much behind a kiss these days as they stamp their seal on our hearts and minds and your kiss had a life of its own here in your interesting tale, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Those were happy, innocent days - growing up in the South

Hey Author a kiss will always lead up to something else if it's done right! Your choice of style and size of font brings much attraction to your piece. Not to mention the silhouette of boy kisses girl. I love it. This is a very nice and enjoyable reading

Mary, back when I was growing up, it was an innocent time. Truly. A gentler time - at least in our little town. Everything moved at a slower pace - including what came after kissing. :) Our parents would have killed us. But kissing? That was special.
Thanks for your very nice comments.

Hello my friend
Nice entry for the Kiss writing prompt. It's very romantic and it made me smile. Kind of sweet as a kiss poem should be. You adhered to the rules. Well done. Good luck in the contest.

muchas gracias, senora! It was fun remembering.
Comment from RodG
You have done a wonderful job of bringing back memories of those bygone days when we, as youngsters, learned to kiss at parties. I especially remember going "steady" after three dates and marrying early. Thanks for this nostalgic stroll. Rod

Comment from tfawcus
Ah! Those were the days, and I am sure they still are in one form or another, though I'm at a loss to see how a virtual kiss can replace the real thing! Plenty of nostalgia in this one. I laughed at your last line, delivered through braces, no doubt!

thanks so much for your neat review.
Fortunately, I was the only member of my family who didn't need braces, but your remark would've added the perfect touch.And virtual kisses? or through a mask? asking too much.
