A Lover's Kiss When a kiss... is whisper soft When the release... is an echo in the air Hearts and minds... are sent aloft With the privacy... of all to share When a touch... turns an embrace When a word... is put forth by gaze Loyalty and trust... meet face to face With thunderous power... sent to amaze When two hands... together are held When lonely arms... are set to entwine Two become one... as they begin to meld With the purity... of a rare wine You must realize... the power that looms Encasing a gift... such as this Hold close each minute... as it is set to bloom Always ready for the torment... of a lover's kiss Mark Bohannan |

"You must realize the power that looms encasing a gift... such as this.." No doubt about it, there is a power that looms but we all want that gift. Very well done! |
