~~
First & Foremost
~~~
a friendly competition,
not of erudition,
more a contest of
speedy eruption
who will be first,
for quenching their thirst,
on not any but only
every,
day of their togetherness,
to declare, swear, affirm,
that their love for the other
is the greater
a race
where both win,
by crossing the
ever-moving forward,
the unfinished line
a never static series,
much more than merely being
a claimant of a trite first place,
more akin
to momentarily being
at the head of an unending
mathematical
progression,
(1 + 1 > 2)
solvable if and when
leap frogging
over each other,
extending their combined reach
when one is
first
to pronounce
this daily blessing
at the
beginning of the
new awakening twenty four,
of their joint custodied
imprimatur,
silently implied,
I love you
with a simple syrup summary
first and foremost
one, if by pillowed whisper
two, if by text
a succint messag to the other,
their love is coming fresh direct,
with an invading intensio,
deserving recognition
that a new edition will be
published
on this very day,
with the
same exact
freshly steaming coffee'd,
bannered headline,
that my love for you,
my darling sweetheart is
first and foremost
condensing with a
yellowing smiley face,
in these illiterate days of emoticons,
unacceptable,
yellow carded,
though summarizing acceptable as
F & F
or
1st/most
formats
that have been adjudged
to be
an A-Ok entry,
in the contest
without a foreseeable ending
and
that no one,
but only both,
can possess
the winning record
