The first kiss is a high note
Set wild free without a score;
The wonder, will it lead
To more?
Losing the icing, romance,
Makes havoc of the dance
Which might have last forever,
Recovered never.
Years stretch, a desert highway,
Alone, tuneless, stranded to stay,
But living rapt with delicious dreams –
Love seems.
Somewhere in the moonless darkness
Comes hand holding hand – happiness,
A kiss unfurling ribbons, magic
Perfect pick.
Make it all delightful song, played long
On strings tuned always to belong
In hearts recalling empty years
Banishing fears.
Life is love; love is all
Sharing the self becomes a fall
Opening being, answering the call –
Giving all.
Keeping a love long alive
Bestows health, hearts survive
The harmony, a kiss, not to be missed
Creating bliss.
Abandon the score
There is more,
Open every possibility, door,
Love evermore!
