Notes About The Poem

This poem was inspired by the contest of my dear poet friend, Andrea Dietrich

Closer Than a Kiss 

You guide me each day
You lift me up when I pray
Through friends and loved ones
My God, You’re really  awesome
Closer than kiss is your love

Very touching excellent poem written by a very good poet. I saw that you view another poet named Margherita Russo she's only 14 and I know it would mean alot for her to have you read her newest poem if you have the time. Thank you very much.
