The first kiss

The single song of the universe
I’ve always been a huge fan of rebus puzzles – those graphic word games where you have to figure out a phrase based on the way that the text and pictures are arranged. Examples include the word ‘close’ written twice next to the word ‘comfort’ written four times (2 close…
