Sense Sonnet - Steamer

The Kiss

V.J. Day in New York Times Square,
A U.S. Navy sailor and
A female dressed in white were there.
The kiss took place and was not planned.
A photograph captured the kiss,
And soon after the kiss became
A visual of joy and bliss.
The kissers were not known by name.
Through the ages the theory is
The girl did catch the sailor's eye,
And he grabbed her in macho biz,
Giving her no chance to reply.

Though romantic it seemed to be,
The kiss has caused controversy.
