This is really cute. You did a great job conveying the racing thoughts and rush of emotion that accompanies that first time you give a kiss. To someone other than your parents. Thanks for sharing a memory. It was a pleasure to read.

    Hello Tim!
    What a wonderful surprise! Thank you for your exceptional rating and review! I can remember that first kiss as if it happened yesterday, and believe me, that "yesterday" was a long time ago!

    Thank you so much. Do stop by again!

This is a fun, interesting entry in the kiss contest. I love the story you told and the detail you went into, it painted a picture in the mind.Roller rinks are a great place to meet people and even share a first kiss, regardless of who's watching or finds out.Thanks for sharing.

I think this is a good entry for the 'Kiss' writing prompt.
Your verse tells clearly the story of your first kiss at a roller rink.
Well done and good luck to you with the competition.
Sharon

This was a novel approach to the prompt and most enjoyable to read. It was fun to visualize you wobbling on that ice rink and accepting the dare. I confess, however,I will never be a fan of AABB rhyming.

What a cute and endearing story, well told in rhyme... held my interest all the way through. Matched perfectly with the picture making a really nice presentation. Fine job and good luck.

isn't it amazing that not so many years ago, Sisters, Nuns... could control and give a sense of safety with just a ruler. Now they're talking about arming teachers with guns. How things have changed. Concerning the young lady who dared to give a boy a kiss, I don't think she needed to go to confession. I think she was very brave and independent. I applaud her as I do your pome. Best wishes.

What is a kiss? Is it not shared by two people? That's where love begins, but it is also two lips coming together spreading germs. And think when people use tongue? Yet, you say there is more? I wait with lips pressed tight (so not to spread germs) and await your next post. Very good entry for the Kiss contest.

This is cute! It tells a story. I wonder how many girls/women have experienced. I had other things happen, but my first kiss was awkward but exciting. No french kiss, but it was my first wet kiss. He moved away. Thank you for evoking memories of a carefree pleasant time. I was ten. He was twelve. This would also have been a good entry fir the Tell a Story contest. Thank you for sharing and good kuck

That was a wonderful narrative story in a poem. The excitement of a first kiss can turn anyone over-the-top insane... And to bust yourself for sinning, but you had to talk to somebody. Better the clergy than the dinner table. It sounds like it was worth the trouble. Nice memory.

Great Title! The Roller Rink! That seemed to be a place that drummed up a lot stolen kisses in the dark. Funny and very clearly spelled out. Worried about God and getting in trouble, then being laughed at after you did your best, in taking a dare. Then confession, to find out you will not burn in hell. Good Luck and Best Wishes in the Contest! Sherman541
