How To Kiss
Kiss me like the light kisses the earth at the point of sunrise
Kiss me like water absorbed into neglected earth during a light rain shower
Kiss me not like mistletoe
Kiss me like I have moments before the gallows
Kiss me like love returned when thought lost for always
Kiss me not like a mother’s mother
Kiss me like someone in love with the sensual art form of lips embracing
Kiss me like a daydream fantasy realized
Kiss me not like routine absence
Kiss me like demise barely survived
Kiss me like a miracle just revealed
Kiss me not like a familiar friend
Kiss me like I’m nearing a compelling mortal endeavor impossible to accomplish
Kiss me like an artist’s paint brush kisses the canvas while painting the likeness of his love -kiss after kiss
Kiss me not like intimacy disrupted by prying eyes
Kiss me like privacy at long last
Kiss me…like modesty forgotten
