Hugs and Kisses
This invention is new. Its only been out for a while, and amazing only for a while. For a while, made to help with migraines. Then and now for a while. Made of what looks to be a mixture of a fabric material now. I have no cotton pickin' idea... But I do use it. Not for my cranium, but for the glass cover that protects the brain, the past. This too revealing. So, now this new invention adds an extra layer of hugs and kisses. Past visits... I-O-Us! Thank you for reading! Which part of the poem resonates with you? Share your thoughts!
