I studied you from head to toe,
As you laid napping on the floor.
If I planted them side by side,
And end to end for some more.

I could get, if you didn’t move,
528 kisses on the front half
And if you rolled over I could
Get 500 kisses more on the back half.

So if you multiplied those kisses,
Times the affection and then,
Squared that times my love,
You know what you’d have then?

A fraction of my feelings that I
Keep inside for sharing later…

It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo!

Larry,
what a calculating piece this is and it shows that when you write loves adds up and equals perfection.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

an ocean of you,
what if I told you,
what if I said
that I love you
do we dare cross
that line between your
heart and mine~
