A kiss, becomes a pact between two souls, br penetrating barriers that shy doubt patrols. br for surely not one earthly joy exists, br to bring such utter comfort like a kiss. br br The softest kiss will land upon a child br Who’s smile turns all but stone soft and mild br Like some fragile petals gloriously strewn br to lightly dust the surface of our moon. br br The sweetest kiss, well placed, lingers tenderly br be worth a mothers life if gifted son or daughterly br It is sensitive, uniquely shaped to seal br So each will recognise the love they feel. br br Young lips that shyly meet to bruise in passion br colour’s plum, all senses erstwhile ashen. br Flesh that swells to lure, to tempt, to promise br Shares mortal fear with every doubting Thomas br br Loyal lips will flutter, face to face with death. br The final kiss, departing in another’s last breath. br Searching for tranquillity a place to rest a while br Until once more they can return, welcome in a babies smile. br br There is untold magic in a kiss br br br Roan copyright © Dec.
