A thousand kisses upon your treasured lips
A thousand whispers in the dark like this
And still I am not satisfied

A thousand prayers for a chance to wish
These feelings not be denied
It’s too late to turn back now,
Nor would I, even if I knew how
For the sun returns to the sky,
And I have given all my heart will allow
Yet I do not question why

A voice like a flower’s fragrance so sweet,
A chance to fall in love again when we meet
That’s what I see beyond the door
As I stand upon these frozen, aching feet;
I’m not tired, but want you more

A thousand times a thousand days
And I will love you a thousand ways

A thousand kisses upon your treasured lips
A thousand whispers in the dark like this(oh damn, mercy)*L*
And still I am not satisfied

I think I have read this one "a thousand" times by now *L*
definately one of my favs..and one of your best, on a very long list...*S*
This is a perfect example of what drew me(us all) to your poetry upon first read...
your signature style is on display here...
the very cool imagery,(the way you mix the imagery and the emotion) the perfect cadence, the poetic, romantic, intend...the conflict, the longing, passion, and devotion, the depth of the emote,laced with your gift to pen that subtle sensual ache.. so the reader feels every line.
Any woman who appreciates/understands poetry waits her whole life to have something like this written for/about her...
Beautiful PK...
(two words...SUBMIT... PUBLISH)    
jm


wont you sing me your poetry
wont you take me to your home
wont you be for me forever
so Ill never be alone
youre my dream, its a beautiful thing

Ahh, yes, I'm with JM...this is indeed fantastic work...beautifully sensual and romantic...I love this...

it was love that first drew me,
it is love that will keep me here...
now I see love burning brightly
when everything else is unclear...

How well your name suits you.

I love the idea of a thousand kisses, PK. And one day I hope to give them to the one I dream of.  
Beautiful poem.

Take me home to Erin's shores,
to where my heart roams free.
