DEAR HERALD: This is not a communication on "Memorial Board;" but it is something worthy, I think, to be added to your series of definitions of a kiss:
"A pout and a parting of lips as they touch -
That's a kiss in the abstract. It doesn't seem much;
But where is the language can rightly express it?
What letters can sound it to help you to guess it?
What simile suggest or what fancy reveal
The mysterious bliss it can cause you to feel?
Here Nature assuredly won a diploma
For fragrance of flavor and perfect aroma.
A kiss is electrical - comes with a start,
That tingles a delicate shock to the heart,
And sets the eyes twinkling with rapturous delight,
Like stars in the sky of a clear, frosty night.
When 'tis over the ecstasy clings to you yet,
'Tis a joy to remember and never forget;
All pleasure condensed in an instant of bliss,
Can but partly describe what's contained in a kiss."
