Those lips which caress,

Each night peppered with you soft kisses,

How deeply your love is felt,

As those kisses are dealt,

Amazingly they deepen your smile,

While all the while,

Staring deep into your eyes,

As each kiss fly’s,

Knowing our love,

Floats with each kiss like the wings of doves.

***

Enshrouded with love,

Your heart sings songs,

As does the morning dove,

Who carries your kisses home to me, my love.

***

There is far away a shore where love,

Lays stranded hand in hand,

Lovers who long ago castaway,

Breathed their last breath,

As they kissed,

Below a nest of snow white doves,

Hooting they comforted lover’s heart,

As dusk faded over the lonely couple,

Cast away on long forgotten isle,

Their love a blanket and hearth,

Forestalling the long arm of night,

Each day another notch,

As their kisses kept filling their hearts,

With hope and peace.
