340/365 A Fourth David

was my swimming-pool buddy during Nixon’s last hot, sweaty, nerve-racking months. I spent all summer wishing he (David) would kiss me already, but at its (summer’s) end, when he was saying goodbye for good, the attempt shocked me, and my shyness turned my cheek.

    Yeah, I've kissed a girl's ear before, too. It was ok but I usually aim for the lips.

    We can be so uncooperative. But some of us like ears.

    I like the parenthetical notation, to let us know you weren't waiting for Nixon to kiss you...
