Some men kiss lips They take their sips From lips they think The sweetest drink Some think more broadly Find other parts Like ears and neck Make kissing darts Still, when we're loving We caress With voices doving Flesh we're covering With hands we're guided Fingertips are glided Goosebumps raising As they are grazing Your hands, softly, Can raise such heat My skin just burns Feeling oh so neat I must take your hands And kiss them too Fingertips - suck in like glue Cooling me, enflaming you All the caresses Lovers find Are made with hands Closed eyes are blind Or tongues and lips Must come to grips As often do Tis the least that you are due Thus this paean to your hands Thus enlivened I'm at your command Molded easy as grains of sand Thus I take your hands in mine Kiss their softness oh so fine You hear my murmurs Of your hands divine The first duty of love is to listen. |

I too have written poems about hands....there is a strength in them that surpasses the eye.... You have captured a hand's essence quite well, Mr. Yeats! |

Bill, Give me the smile shining in a woman's eyes and that will be enough. Good one. Michael Proust- |

Bill, for your words sends chills across my neck and back. Such tantilizing visuals. Though fingertips lightly caressing could set fire to one's soul. LP |

Completely loving. When I think you can not possibly write another love poem, you come up with a new one. Joyce |

Hands are marvelous gifts as you expressed so very well. "I am not now that which I have been." |

Bill, there's nothing like the touch of one that you love. . . excellent. . . -------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
