Ode to the Cheeks




These Cheeks

Squishy
Kissable
Can't stop kissing
Everytime I pick you up
Your cheeks I must kiss
Not just one
Can satisfy
I must kiss
And squish my lips to your cheek

I compare your cheeks to the clouds
Soft
Bouncy
Beautiful
Big
Pink

I kiss one side
You point to the other
As if to say
"Don't leave my other cheek out"

Melt my heart

You throw a fit
I pick you up
Cannot resist the URGE
To Kiss Your Cheeks!

Strangers comment
Women resist the natural, obvious desire
To pinch
To kiss
To stroke
To squeeze
The soft, squishy skin

I eat them up
I can't get enough

  2. I love this poem! It's exactly how I feel about my son's cheekers. Entirely too kissable! We moms have it rough. Hehehehe.
