The Kiss



I’ll blow a kiss into the wind
Where it will find you one day
I hope it lands upon your cheek
But let it travel where it may

A gentle caress you may feel
A feeling you just can’t shake
An exhale long and cool perhaps
When it’s dark and the hour is late

When the season turns to winter
The last leaf falls upon the ground
The first snowflake dresses for the party  
And invites some friends to hang around  

So let yourself remember
And let your mind run free
May my kiss find you, my love
May it dance upon your cheek
