we went to those places in our minds
like they were free rent hallways
with no doors that would close behind

perhaps we were too cautious at times
but the look backs through those windows
are what keeps our eyes hungry now

and keeps us tasting residues of a kiss
like vanilla bean ice cream, home made
and looking away after, wanting more

wishing some stubborn summer would linger
and leave the drapes open all evening
so we could watch ourselves afterwards

when we looked back from another beginning

You sure know how to make lovely
taste good...
and smell fine.
