Allow Me Time To Reminisce

Allow me time to reminisce On the glow of the perfect kiss Leading to life’s peaceful bliss, An emotion I don’t want to miss So much more delightful than a hiss, Or, those insults from a nasty diss. You see because I had an older sis I learned to sit to take a…you got this!
Written September 30, 2022 [from a few moments of silly musing on rhymes for "this."]

haha Did sis give ya a little lesson? Or did you watch her outside your window? My sisters watched me kissing a guy outside their bedroom window one night. Oh, the joys of being the eldest sister.

Actually, truthfully, Andrea, it just simply rhymed, and I had nowhere else to go with it! Thanks, though. I can't ever recall watching my sis in that situation, although I wouldn't have put it passed me.

Delightful insight Milton. I hope your family did well with the storm in the Pan handle and Port St Lucie. My brother Gus said it was windy in Port St lucie but it wasn't as bad as the coast...

Thanks, Michael. I'm glad it wasn't so bad in that area. My nieces have notified me they are okay and no damage. Although a friend's parents' home in Ft. Myers had considerable damage to their carport and roof.
