I place seven kisses in your cup
Your cup of grace from which you sup
If my love, you'll drink them up
You'll see the kisses placed in cup

First the kiss to you from me
It is a kiss of mystery
And then because I love you true
Extend this kiss from me to you

The second kiss I've placed with pluck
It can send you lots of luck
It brings the laughter held by puck
From glass to you - so pucker up

See the third upon the rim
It's a muse that's blowing in
Music, song and poetry's vim  
All for you upon my whim

The fourth kiss sparkles in delight
This the kiss to seal your night
Passion's kiss given in flight
To soothe and calm and bring love's light

See the fifth - a kiss of power
To guide you in your darkest hour
To sweeten life when all's gone sour
This the kiss to make mine "our"

Here's the sixth a kiss of peace
In which I offer hope's release
Take this kiss I offer please
To use when falling to your knees

The seventh kiss a gift from God
To help you stand in saintly shod
To gift new strength to walk this sod
A kiss that heals from pain of rod

So takes these kisses one to seven
Use them as your own heart's leaven
From me to you a taste of heaven
Kisses seven are freely given

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Kethry,
Those are some powerful lips you possess! And an excellent pen too! Thanks. Oh, those weren't for me, were they.

Keth darling heart sister and holder of my dreamers soul what utter beauty darling heart truly this is one of your utter utter best. YES I know you knew I was going to say that. I sometimes wonder if I’ll run out of words of delight to describe your writing, but I hope I won’t.

I could go all slushy on you now and say that there’s never anything but wonder that flows from your pen but you know that darling heart don’t you? Mmmmm of course you do

If I could write like you what joy I’d see
The words would form with light collectively
There’d be no cessation of poetic intent
I’d compose and I’d write the words I meant
My pen would flow with words divine
If my pen were yours I would write so fine
I’d be happy to inscribe the words so true
And fill with delight this page of blue


Love and warm stuff
As always
Slushy


To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1
