Nancy’s Kisses

I’m going through my mem’ries ~
Picking out the best ~
The ones that brought long pleasure
To this life that God has blest.

One that blest me Oh, so much
I’m still thankful for today
Was Nancy with her kisses and
Her sweet and loving ways.

For in my family, sure, we kissed,
Goodnight and all goodbyes,
But Nancy kissed hello with blessings
Higher than the sky!

She’d greet on Sunday morning
With a hug and sweetest kiss ~
There was not a single one that
Nancy’s lips would miss!

She said, “You’re sweet as honey ~
It just drips with every word!
No wonder the kids love their teacher!”
And I blushed with every word.

Slowly I began to be more
Liberal in my ways ~
And gave a kiss to certain ones
To brighten up their day.

...A long time now since Nancy felt
Our kisses of goodbye.
I know she’s kissing others in
The new church...flyin’ high!

I go now to the manor where
The bravest heroes live ~
They come to hear an old singer,
And ~ for the kisses that I give.

I owe it all to Nancy!
And I kiss them ~ every one!
Then we sing songs of Jesus and
Have lots of Godly fun.

You never know how a tender touch
Can brighten up a day....
And if you pucker up your lips ~
A kiss is just a swish away!
