of wedding bands and solaced hands


overflowing, my mind’s going

to the love that you’re bestowing

dream fulfillment in your kiss

when we’re apart i reminisce

 

your picture in my shirt pocket

close to my heart like a locket

the death of less is born again

with my fingers on your skin

 

my fingers tangle in your hair

where all else fades without a care

pulling you close i am a ghost

who finds the light by the guide posts

 

of your green eyes that satisfy

this hunger i cannot deny

to touch you then touch you again

till every touch that’s ever been

 

is just a shadow in the night

only your beauty can ignite

the flames of love that turtle doves

will sacrifice to God above

 

so many kisses go astray

but your kiss is here to stay

while others paint the rose blood red

my wild rose needs no instead

 

the passion red upon your lips

won’t wipe away with just one sip

i hold you now and know somehow

this flame cannot be doused by clouds

the sunshine of your beauty sways

the promise of un-cloudy days

 

***
