John Loving Iii Poet I do not know?

2 Seconds

2 seconds
a simple hug
such a short embrace
just a little bit of love

a 2 second hug
and a kiss on the cheek
a little something extra
to make her hug more sweet

a 3 second hug
and a kiss on the cheek
a hug and a kiss
for every time we meet

how wondrous is the magic
in the things that show love
the little things that count
like kisses and hugs

to wonder and not worry
with some form of repose
a hug and a kiss
could make one suppose

suppose she likes me
a little more than that
a kiss on the cheek 
is not a pat on the back

it might be something special
or cruelty leading me on
it could be something casual
or something she does for fun

but what if i'm right
and all my second guessing wrong
then it wouldn't hurt to ask her
for more kisses and more hugs

Carolyn Devonshire April 8, 2010 at 4:50 PM By all means, we should never be reluctant to ask for hugs, John. Even if her feelings for your are of a friendly nature, I hope you'll spend more time getting to know her. Enjoyed your poem very much! Hope you are doing well, dear friend. Love, Carolyn
