Power of a Kiss So mesmerized by deep desire, their eyes come to embrace Entwined in thought beyond the touch or joy of common space Just as the tides define the rhythmic motions of the sea So are the lips the vibrant pulsing flesh of ecstasy His pupils wander downward toward the lush and swollen lip That begs a waiting mouth the oozing wetness of a sip It tiptoes ever softly to the closeness of his skin And speaks the silent language of the fires that burn within Then lip to lip and heart to heart the flaming passion wells Just as the churning ocean tides rise up in rhythmic swells The pulling undertows of love too powerful to fight Draw in defenseless lips in quiet shadows of the night And there in petals of the rose, the lush and blooming flower Will open uninhibited to love’s compelling power And nothing ever will compare to this, the sweetest bliss That moves the earth with tenderness and beauty of a kiss Elizabeth Santos |

And now come the sighs. Beautiful, just beautiful. I must study your work...I do so enjoy working in styles that incorporate rhyme...just haven't yet mastered the flow from line to line. You keep writing and I'll keep reading, OK? Love this! Patricia |

The Lady speaketh the truth--and with exquisite 'sensuosity'!  ~ May you be kissed this sweetly--and often!  Linda |

It tiptoes ever softly to the closeness of his skin And speaks the silent language of the fires that burn within Then lip to lip and heart to heart the flaming passion wells Just as the churning ocean tides rise up in rhythmic swells I want one of these! *G* Or two... or two thousand... every day for the next 50 years or so??? LOL Beautiful write, Elizabeth... you've described something almost beyond description. *S* |
