Love Poem: The Kiss

The Kiss

It’s such a simple gesture that we show
to family and friends whene’er we meet;
a simple way to always let them know
we truly care to make this bond complete.

A kiss can come in oh so many forms;
as simple peck upon a baby’s cheek;
at times a kiss on forehead is the norm,
or dance across the lips for love to seek.

But still the one that dawdles in my dreams,
the kiss of passion that all lovers know;
with parted lips pressed tightly to extremes,
expressed desires for one another show.

And on those lonely nights while we’re apart;
it’s YOUR kiss that will linger in my heart.
