Lips once singed
now strike a balance point,
lift themselves from the abyss.

Amity sits at Love’s window

~Anticipation~
of a lover’s kiss

As the amplitude of heartbeats
thunders past all confines,
ribbed cages notwithstanding

Sound the trumpets!
Beat the drums!

Seas shall part...
Clouds shall burst...

and arms once left empty
shall fill themselves
with tenderness and giving
Rebirthing the living,
lifting two souls from the abyss

~Anticipation~
of a lover’s kiss

I LOVE it!
Hooray!

I await your lips
and our soft soulful melding
anticipation

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

Oh my! Your poetry is certainly something certainly worth anticipating.

Lovely, Kacy!  Perhaps anticipation of anything in life is the best part - keeps the heart alive - and then, of course, if we don't anticipate, we don't get!

From quiet
to loud
to wonderful
to quiet...

yes...a sounding poem.
