The First Kiss I Remember

So Many loves that I recall in a life so brash and bold
Giving me my fondest memories to enjoy when I get old
Each had their moment and I loved them one and all
There is one more kiss, the funniest I recall
We called her Marbles and to me she was so much more
I'd laugh when she'd come to me as I was playing on the floor
I was just a child, so naïve, so innocent, so weak
She kissed me on the face and left saliva on my cheek
She'd sit in front of my chair, looking up as she begs
The first kiss I remember was from a female with four legs

They sure are special kisses, always welcome. I don't have them any more as she died a short time ago. I love the sentiment though.
