A Plain Old Kiss
Folder:
Love Some people need a peck or two;
For others a simple smooch will do;
Too many, a graze will stimulate;
A few may want to osculate.
And then, there are those who need a smack;
For flowery words they have a knack.
But all I want from you is bliss,
Which you can give me with a plain, old kiss!
The playful rythym in the beginning adds a childish, yet mature tone... which we often find ourselves embracing when in love. However, it falls apart in the second stanza and turns into a jumble of forced rhymes, which lack in effect. It can be re-written and kept to form, but think hard about the words you use, don't just throw words in because they rhyme, it's a problem I've faced in most of my writing and have just come to realize, it leaves the reader bored.
