It Was The Kiss – an Ode Tell me which beat I might miss For the heart is in pound, in time And I, I would but be remiss Not to recount the tale in rhyme Tell me where my thoughts have scattered Upon these high winds, I am sure Somewhere, clinging to limbs, tattered, While this feeling, so immature… It took me in amaze, you see, Feelings of drowning in surprise The richest part of harmony This sharing of two lover’s eyes… The softest touch, before lips met Softer still, in quiet release Framed in time of never forget Then knowing, no longer, warm peace… I awoke in sweet shadow’s dream Suffering pain of never known It was the kiss, surely, it seemed, Haunted by a far away moan The pillow felt my fist of fear My heart in search of recapture My cheek in burn, a solemn tear, That I might regain that rapture To hear the words “your lips, so soft” Whispered again near this, my ear To feel again my heart in loft But nay, only sweet burn of tear It was the kiss, white light of love That held me in such discompose Such is the fit of hand in glove While offering his love one rose This, then, is the ode to a kiss And that of a dream still in quest For know ye please, t’would be remiss To not hold that love to my breast. |

It took me in amaze, you see, Feelings of drowning in surprise The richest part of harmony This sharing of two lover’s eyes… The softest touch, before lips met Softer still, in quiet release Framed in time of never forget It does all that... when it's right. *S* Beautiful work, Sunshiney One! *S* |

Waht a beautiful Ode to a kiss Karilea. Beautifully written  M  Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |
