A Long Kiss |

A long kiss on the lips with love all around you, like gentle touching blossoms soft and wet, is filled with a nectar to drug and blind you, bringing glowing hypnotic waves from the chest. A long kiss savoured is insanity flavoured; a craving for dreamers to taste the prize for yeilding hearts that send all human reason adrift in circles of love in the mind. A long kiss speaks, but not words you can conquer. A long kiss sings, but not songs you can sing. A long kiss sails on the windsongs of matter caught up in the flight of an alien on wing. A long kiss can torch your heart to continue burning with fire long after it's over a flame left roaring deep within you a molten addiction invading the sober. A long kiss can heal diminished duende a soothing connection for those with a gift. And words can't flatter those few precious moments when visions of true love come from within.

An intresting side-effect of long kisses, probably due to the fact that the participants are breathing in carbon dioxide from each other instead of oxygen, is that one tends to get a little dizzy after a while and feel the need to lay down.....at least I think that's why ![]() Good poem, ethome ![]() |

A long kiss savoured is insanity flavoured; a craving for dreamers to taste the prize for yeilding hearts that send all human reason adrift in circles of love in the mind ============================= A long kiss can torch your heart to continue burning with fire long after it's over a flame left roaring deep within you a molten addiction invading the sober. A long kiss can heal diminished duende a soothing connection for those with a gift. And words can't flatter those few precious moments when visions of true love come from within. ======================= Ahhhh Poetic Lip lock....my favorite kind of verse ![]() E-babes...this is lip smaking luscious... and romantic as wine and candles... (make it raspberry wine and Im there) LOL very nice write of passion born in the lips. You can write about anything and make it groovy ![]() |

It's been entirely too long since I've experienced a long kiss (or a short one, for that matter! LOL) .... but I do remember I prefer participating in them to reading about them! LOL. Still, they're not available... and this poem flows so beautifully and the rhyme is so fine... It and memories leave me smiling. *S* Well done! |
