**
I finally got all excited about the book and me being apart of it and decided the poem that had been submited was not what I wanted to be the only sample of my poetry and now it's too late to submit.     (pout)   Oh well.  I'm gonna repost this one anyways just because I feel like it.

-- A Little Kiss of Passion -- (4-12-2000)

Is your kiss authentic
Do I have the only one
Or is it just an action
Shared with others just for fun

A kiss isn't a reservation
Made only with your lips
You can do it holding hands
Just by tightening your grip

I can kiss you with my eyes
Just by staring deep
I can kiss you with my words
And sweep you off your feet

I can kiss you without motion
With only my warm embrace
I can kiss you with the soft caress
Of my fingers on your face

You see a kiss should show affection
And I do prefer your lips
But they're only part of the fraction
It's the emotions that I miss

Some kisses are simply gestures
A tradition developed over time
Some are just reminders
That I'm yours and your mine

A kiss can be an action
Some are created in lust
But I want a kiss of passion
And it requires that you trust

A kiss with no emotions
It's almost like a sin
Like poison on a rose
Or the betrayal of a friend

Just be sure that when we kiss
It's something that you feel
If it's just an action
Then it wasn't very real

Hi Dave, I love the way you've expressed such truth! A kiss can happen in many ways, and with trust, is definitely "authentic"...wonderful poem!

Thanks for the compliment Claire.  This one has become one of my favorites... I've got a few ideas for new poems... just can't seem to piece them together... my muse has been starved I think.     --Dave< !signature-->

Thinking about a woman I have kissed recently...who's name I will not mention...but she kisses with her whole body...and she caresses me and wants to look right into my eyes and talk to me and she really kisses back with everythings she's got...sensuality at its finest...I love to kiss her...drives me crazy...James

Dave --  I must confess, I'd not read any of your work before.  Then, you replied so nicely to some of mine that I did a search for ya and Wow!  What an awesome piece this is.  You've captured all the mystery and sensuality of what a kiss should be.  Loved it and look forward to more!

Well thank you kindly Angel.    Although I do hope you did a search on more than this forum.  

I've got some other good ones in other forums. (Not many, but a few) Although a good shortcut would be to click on that little home page icon up there and check out my homepage.  It'se really just a collection of my poems.

Thanks for the compliment.  Hope I can get back into the swing of things and write something worth reading soon. =)  

Love your work.


I wear my heart on my sleeve to show the emotions that I can't express with words. --Dave
