Every time I kiss you

Every time I kiss you
After a long separation
I feel
I am putting a hurried love letter
In a red mailbox.

Masks

by Shel Silverstein 

She had blue skin,
And so did he.
He kept it hid
And so did she.
They searched for blue
Their whole life through.
Then passed right by
And never knew.

Paris on the Potomac: A Hard Rain is Fallin'

 

Special Guest: Zach Shrewsbury:
